Vision
We want to enable Raccoon as the preferred event collector and event distributor that provides high volume, high throughput, low latency protocol-agnostic, and event-agnostic APIs for data ingestion in near-real-time. With this vision, Raccoon can serve the needs of
- Adtech streams - Where digital marketing data from external sources can be ingested into the organization backends
- Clickstream - Where user behavior data can be streamed in real-time
- Edge networks - Where devices (say in the IoT world) need to send data to the cloud. Event Sourcing systems - Such as Stock updates dashboards, autonomous/self-drive use cases
Raccoon 1.x
- Support for HTTP, gRPC
- Support for json, protobuf formats
- Extendable event distribution
- Extendable event filtering capability
- Enable Raccoon to replay lost events with zero-data-loss capability.
- Adopt Raccoon to publish to different transport systems
- Enables Raccoon to provide extendable data formatters. eg. JSON to proto
