6 commentsOne curious question: why couldn't Confluent build their own Warpstream, or pioneer one themselves, these last few years? The space seems quite close to their technology and the needs of their customers. "Lack of talent" or "disorganization" would be a dispiriting answer.
Will be an exciting Current 2024 conference, Sept 18/19. Free streaming tickets available.
Funny to see people still trying the "our product will be even better" line at acquisition.
