Likelihood to Recommend
IBM Event Streams is well suited for companies developing event driven Microservices. One of the biggest challenger with microservices is that your data gets distributed into little silos - event streaming (or better known as event sourcing) allows you to get a central source of truth in your event store. We are taking this approach with IBM Event Streams and it is well suited for building an event streaming / sourcing architecture.

Alternatives Considered
We are still in the evaluation process. To enable an event streaming platform for enterprise, IBM Event Streams is a strong candidate due to the ease of use and setup in the cloud. There are many capabilities we are trying to understand to see if IBM Event Streams is the right fit for our needs. I would rate its platform behind Confluent Cloud.

Return on Investment
  • In using downstreams, the minimal features and the rate of releases were slow, makes us feel that there's no upgrades and other than that there's poor marketing of the product.
  • The adoption around the service is low, requires focused marketing.
  • Lack of visibility into topic depth , Monitoring capabilities
