Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing businesses across industries. From personalized customer experiences to predictive analytics and process automation, there are hardly any sectors untouched by AI's impact. Its applications in data management aren't left behind. In fact, AI has the potential to transform traditional data management practices.

In this article, we will be continuing our series of deep dives into KIP-405. Previously, we covered: Now, we turn our attention to the internals of the read and delete paths. Just like we did for the write and metadata, here we will also be focusing on Aiven’s battle-tested Apache-licensed KIP-405 plugin. What makes the read path particularly interesting is how it delivers latency comparable to local disk or memory systems despite leveraging external object storage—let's dive in!

In the present day’s digital world, a company’s website is more than just a digital shopfront important factor in customer experience, marketing, and company operations. With so much at stake on the performance of the Web and user engagement, organisations have to ensure that the websites are tuned both technically and for meeting visitor needs.

With the introduction of Aiven for AlloyDB Omni, many of our customers have wondered what the difference is between AlloyDB Omni and its architectural source project, open source PostgreSQL. AlloyDB Omni is more than just a re-implementation of PostgreSQL, and understanding how it is similar – and how it differs – from open source PostgreSQL is a valuable exercise.

Manufacturers are under pressure to increase efficiency, reduce downtime, and future-proof their factories. Rising costs, global competition, and shifting customer expectations mean that even small inefficiencies can lead to lost revenue or market share. This is difficult while using legacy systems that limit visibility and adaptability. These outdated systems often operate in silos, making it hard to access real-time data, respond to unexpected issues, or scale with modern technologies.

KIP-1150 isn’t a distant, strange planet; it just reroutes Kafka’s entire replication pathway from broker disks to cloud object storage. Flip one topic flag and your data bypasses local drives altogether: Because Diskless is built into Kafka (no client changes, no forks), we had to solve a 4D puzzle: How do you make a Diskless topic behave exactly like a Kafka one—inside the same cluster—without rewriting Kafka?
