Fast is good. Predictably fast is what really matters!
What does it really take to achieve predictable P99 latency at scale?
At P99 CONF, our co-founder and CTO, @spetzu, shared the engineering decisions behind @ApacheIggy, a persistent streaming engine built from the ground up for ultra-low latency and high throughput.
Rust. Thread-per-core architecture. io_uring. Zero-copy optimizations. And a relentless focus on eliminating inefficiencies in the hot path.
The talk goes beyond benchmarks to explore how architectural choices translate into real-world performance.
At @laserdatainc, we believe the next generation of data infrastructure should deliver more throughput, predictable tail latencies, and dramatically better infrastructure efficiency.
That’s the philosophy behind Apache Iggy, and the foundation we’re building on.
Every millisecond counts. So does every byte.

We put a chaos monkey in a multi-agent support desk and let it kill agents mid-run.
The replacement agents replayed the session from the stream, resumed from the last checkpoint, and didn't issue the refund twice.
Agents fail. Their sessions shouldn't.

Apache Iggy just hit 5000 stars on GitHub! Thank you to our 140+ contributors and everyone who starred, built, and contributed.

Join us at @WeAreDevs World Congress North America in San Jose, September 23–25. We’re looking forward to three days of knowledge sharing, good conversations, and time with the people building what’s next.
One question we’d like to explore together: when an agent fails halfway through a task, what survives? At @laserdatainc, we’re building durable agent sessions on an append-only log powered by @ApacheIggy, so agents can replay and resume while other systems read the same stream.
If you’re working on agent recovery, handoffs, or real-time data, come compare notes. Find us on Level 2 at booth #754, sharing the space with our friends at RocketRide.

Models made intelligence cheap. Agents are going to make data movement and state management expensive.
Agents are constantly reading context, changing state, calling tools, generating events, and handing work to other agents.
We spent the last few years figuring out how to run models efficiently. I strongly believe the next big infrastructure problem is going to be everything happening between them.

One more stream is here. 💚
Today marks the beginning of a new chapter for @laserdatainc
We’re bringing together three worlds that have largely evolved independently:
1. Real-time message streaming.
2. Agent Data Fabric.
3. Real-time applications.
One infrastructure. One durable foundation.
Today we’re announcing major new capabilities across the stack, from VSR-based clustering in @ApacheIggy and Agent Data Exchange (AGDX) Protocol for agent-agent-system data exchange, to new LaserData Cloud plans (launch, scale, performance, and enterprise) and deployment options across AWS and GCP.
All these capabilities are in PRIVATE BETA, will be GA on September 18, 2026.
And we’re just getting started.
We’ll continue shipping throughout the year. But once in a while, we’ll take a moment to bring together the biggest ideas we’ve been working on and share where we’re taking real-time and agent data infrastructure next.
Welcome to the next chapter of LaserData. 🚀

We’re pleased to announce two new projects graduated to Top-Level Project status. buff.ly/Jx10VbW
@ApacheIggy, a hyper-efficient, persistent message streaming platform written in Rust
Apache Sourcelume, open source instrumentation for AI training-data provenance.
A new LASER has joined the STREAM.
We’re excited to welcome @JustinMclean as Developer Relations Manager, working across @ApacheIggy, Laser Stack, Laser SDK and LaserData Cloud.
Justin brings 30+ years of engineering and open-source leadership, including serving as Vice Chair of @TheASF Board and VP of the Apache Incubator.
He’ll be helping us grow worldwide developer communities, improve the developer experience, create technical content and examples, and make it easier for developers to build with our open-source and open-core technologies.
As we rethink real-time data infrastructure for the AI era, having deeply experienced open-source leaders working alongside our community matters enormously.
Welcome to @laserdatainc, Justin! 🚀
Open Source. Open Core. Open Future.

Trust isn’t a feature. It’s infrastructure.
We're now ISO certified, SOC 2 and GDPR Compliant.
Last month, we shared that LaserData achieved ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification.
Today, we’re taking the next step.
We’ve launched our Trust Center, giving customers and partners a central place to understand how we secure the infrastructure powering real-time and AI-native systems.
✅ ISO/IEC 27001:2022
✅ SOC 2 Type II
✅ GDPR
Building infrastructure for enterprise AI means earning trust every day, not just through performance and reliability, but through disciplined security, privacy, and operational practices.
This is another step toward making LaserData an enterprise-ready platform for developers building the next generation of AI-native applications.

Congratulations to the winners of the inaugural LaserData Hackathon Awards! 🏆
It was incredible to see more than 30 projects built in under five hours, with LaserData powering real-time communication, multi-agent coordination, memory, and workflows across many of the submissions.
Congratulations to Nelson, Ali, Sunny, Abhinav, and Ashna on your outstanding projects. We’re excited to see what you build next.
🏆 LaserData Memory Meets Motion Hackathon Award Winners! In less than 5 hours, over 30 projects came to life.
When we decided to be part of the Memory Meets Motion Hackathon, our goal wasn’t simply to put a logo on the event. We wanted to see what developers could build with a new kind of real-time infrastructure for AI-native systems.
What surprised us most wasn’t the number of projects, it was that LaserData became the backbone and streaming layer for almost all of them.
Developers used our cloud platform with Laser Stack and Laser SDK to coordinate multi-agent systems, build durable memory, orchestrate workflows, and move data between autonomous agents in real time. Watching teams go from zero to working demos in a few hours was an exciting glimpse of what’s possible when AI infrastructure is built around streams instead of request-response.
Congratulations to our award winners:
#1 LaserData Real-Time AI Award
Emberline (LaserGuild) - Nelson Lai
#2 LaserData Multi-Agent Award
N.O.U.S – Neural Orchestration of User Sentences - Ali Amjad, Sunny Rodrigues, Abhinav Garg
#3 LaserData Durable Intelligence Award
Employee Handoff - Ashna Parekh
A huge thank you to everyone who participated, our fellow sponsors, mentors, and the organizers for making this event possible.
This is exactly why we’re building @laserdatainc.
Not just another streaming platform, but the next-gen event streaming infrastructure for real-time and AI-native systems, where streams, memory, context, state, graph and workflows work together to power the next generation of intelligent applications.
We’re just getting started. 🚀
