  • the ecosystem is smaller than Kafka and the semantics differ from classic queues.
  • Choose it over Kafka when footprint, speed, and edge suitability matter more than Kafka's larger ecosystem and tooling.
  • Pricing and usage limits should be checked against the exact plan
  • Implementation effort depends on the team's data and process maturity
  • Reported outcomes should be validated with the buyer's own data
