RESTful

Abstract event delivery via a secured RESTful API. This allows microservices teams to maintain service boundaries, and not directly depend on any specific message broker technology. Access to the API can be managed and secured using OAuth scopes.

JSON Schema

Enable convenient development of event-driven applications and asynchronous microservices. Event types can be defined with schemas and managed via a registry. Nakadi also has optional support for events describing business processes and data changes using standard primitives for identity, timestamps, event types, and causality.

Flexibility

Nakadi instances are stateless. They can be run on AWS with auto-scaling.

Using Timelines, it is easy to move the traffic to another cluster without moving the data, and without service interruption.
