Happy to see that our recent blog post about thread-per-core & io_uring migration has been mentioned by @ThisWeekInRust this-week-in-rust.org/blog/2026/03/0…

It's been a tremendous effort of the whole core team and external contributors, spanning almost a year, well done!

🚀 Apache Iggy 0.7.0 is out! VSR consensus for clustering, LeftRight lock-free metadata, NUMA awareness, socket migration, and tons of SDK & connector improvements. Replication is coming! iggy.apache.org/blogs/2026/02/… #iggy #rust #io_uring #vsr #apache #asf #streaming

Your contributions are what make OSS great and help our community thrive! Once again, a huge thank you to all contributors who help make Apache Iggy the most efficient message streaming solution out there 🚀 #iggy #rust #oss #apache #asf #github #messaging #streaming

@sunbains Yeah, speaking of Rust + io_uring, we recently rewrote iggy.apache.org to use a pure io_uring, thread-per-core runtime :)

I’m a big fan of io_uring, for me it’s not about performance but a unified interface for talking to the kernel and thinking about the problems as queues, leveraging coroutines etc. I’ve yet to see somebody max out libaio performance. Their bottlenecks are usually elsewhere. It’s good enough if all you care about is performance.

The Iggy Web UI is now embedded directly in the server. Enable it with a single setting — no separate container needed anymore. One binary to run them all. #iggy #rust #svelte #ui #web #asf #apache #oss

Why you might want to consider the completion-based I/O (io_uring) for your next project. Check this discussion (a glimpse of the future blog post). reddit.com/r/rust/comment… #iggy #rust #io_uring #compio #tokio #apache #asf

@matsonj @BenjDicken We're not a classical DB (message streaming, so just the basic append-only log), but we've recently rebuilt our core in @ApacheIggy to support the modern io_uring workloads github.com/apache/iggy/

@BenjDicken TigerBeetle and DuckDB come to mind for me

What does a relational database designed *specifically* for local SSDs look like? Postgres, MySQL, SQLite and many others were invented in the 90s and 00s, the era of spinning disks. A local NVMe SSD has ~1000x improvement in both throughput and latency. Design decisions like write-ahead logs, large page sizes, and buffering table writes in bulk were built around disks where I/O was SLOW, and where sequential I/O was order(s)-of-magnitude faster than random. If we had to throw these databases away and begin from scratch in 2025, what would change and what would remain?

Turning my attention more to Iggy. It’s to streaming what ClickHouse is to OLAP.

Need speed & efficiency? 🚀 Choose Iggy Connectors Runtime to fetch, transform & store data seamlessly. Use community plugins or build your own, all natively compiled in Rust! iggy.apache.org/docs/connector… #iggy #rust #connectors #asf #apache #messaging #streaming #github #oss

Fantastic work by our core team and all the external contributors!

Supporting WebSockets with completion-based I/O powered by io_uring. Here’s how we built a new transport protocol for Apache Iggy with blazingly fast performance. iggy.apache.org/blogs/2025/11/… #iggy #rust #websocket #io_uring #compio #asf #apache #messaging #streaming #github #oss

🚀 Apache Iggy 0.6.0 is coming! Featuring a full server's core rewrite to the thread-per-core, shared-nothing design based on io_uring runtime (by compio), along with WebSocket transport for edge devices & web apps. Share your feedback: github.com/apache/iggy/di… #iggy #asf #apache

Rebuilding our message-streaming core into a thread-per-core, shared-nothing architecture on an io_uring runtime? Just a few months of deep dives, experiments, and ~650 changed files later :) github.com/apache/iggy/pu… #iggy #io_uring #threadpercore #rust #apache #asf #streaming

3,000+ ⭐ on GitHub! Huge thanks to our amazing community! 🙌 The io_uring, thread-per-core runtime is coming soon to Apache Iggy - stay tuned! 🚀 #iggy #apacheiggy #apache #asf #github #oss #io_uring #rust #streaming #messaging
