Report was filed, but display is awaiting the approval of the Board minutes.
Iggy is a high-performance, ultra-low latency and large-scale persistent
message streaming platform written in Rust.
Iggy has been incubating since 2025-02-04.
### Three most important unfinished issues to address before graduating:
1. Continue expanding the community, release more versions under ASF
2. Migrate all the repos from previous OSS repo
https://github.com/orgs/iggy-rs/repositories to apache/iggy repo (mono repo
with independent CI/CD)
3. Enhance iggy.apache.org with more details, guides, docs, blogs,
benchmarks etc
### How has the community developed since the last report?
1. Discord members count approaching 400, new contributors writing
proposals (discussions), submitting PRs for fixing issues, docs,
enhancements.
2. Github stars approaching 2.5k from 2.4k
3. Creates downloads crosses 124k vs 115k at the time of last report
4. Presented at [Rustmeet 2025](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v3bpw7fcjp0)
5. Presented at [Rustikon Conference
2025](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GkV306PyvqM)
### How has the project developed since the last report?
1. Apache Iggy (Incubating) [v0.4.300
released](https://lists.apache.org/thread/q3r6l0gcc27k1nj1q8frqwh40o0mhs4h)
2. Enhanced performance and efficiency: zero-copy (de)serialization
[implemented](https://iggy.apache.org/blogs/2025/05/08/zero-copy-deserializa
tion) for the server & updated SDK client
3. Restructuring the repository to support monorepo with multiple SDKs and
other tooling (eg benchmarks)
4. Started migrating the SDKs from old repo (dotnet, java, node, web UI etc)
5. Successful POCs (with quickwit) for steaming messages into external
connectors/sinks
6. Submitted detailed report for trademarks and received the [approval for
the name](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PODLINGNAMESEARCH-236)
"Iggy", "Apache Iggy" from Apache's Brand Management Team (Mark Thomas)
