    From the README

    RisingWave is an enterprise-grade event streaming platform designed to offer the simplest and most cost-effective way to ingest, process, and manage real-time event data — with built-in support for the Apache Iceberg™ open table format. It provides both a Postgres-compatible SQL interface and a DataFrame-style Python interface.

    RisingWave can ingest millions of events per second, continuously join and analyze live streams with historical data, serve ad-hoc queries at low latency, and manage data reliably in Apache Iceberg™ tables.

    To learn about other installation options, such as using a Docker image, see the quick start guide.

    RisingWave delivers a unified streaming data platform that combines ultra-low-latency stream processing and Iceberg-native data management.
