Support

Generally supported by commercial third party vendors (e.g. middleware, databases, low code platforms)
Generally available knowledge/training
Should run on development devices (shift-left)

Data infra as a service (vision: Data Mesh; will share more as vision / use cases evolve)

Event Log (Kafka): for event-driven microservices, integration, IoT streams
Object Store (S3, e.g. Minio): cloud-native alternative to file systems; message store for claim-check pattern
Cloud-friendly RDBMS (e.g. Postgres)
Wide-column database (e.g. Cassandra): for discrete time series vectors
Graph DB (e.g. Neo4j): for provenance
