Bytewax

Bytewax builds a Python stream processing framework, distributed as an open-source project under the Apache-2.0 license, for constructing real-time data pipelines. The core project is the most prominent of the company's public code repositories and is described simply as "Python Stream Processing."

Around the core framework, the company maintains an ecosystem of connectors and extension packages that link pipelines to external data systems and services, including sinks and sources for DuckDB and MotherDuck, Redis, InfluxDB, Azure AI Search, and the Rerun visualization tool, as well as operators for computing over rolling windows. Deployment tooling includes a Helm charts repository for running Bytewax on Kubernetes. The team also publishes documentation content for its platform offering and a curated list of publicly available real-time datasets.
