Destinations

A destination determines where replayed data will be sent.

Streamdal currently supports the following replay destinations:

  • Kafka
  • RabbitMQ
  • Amazon SQS
  • HTTP
  • NATS
  • Redis PubSub
  • Redis Streams
  • Google Cloud PubSub
  • A running instance of Plumber

A replay destination can either be:

  • A publicly accessible resource (such as an internet connected Kafka instance on Confluent)
  • or
  • A tunnel created via plumber

A destination will be automatically health-checked for you and its status will be available in the destination view and on the dashboard.

If a destination is “unhealthy”, it means that Streamdal is not able to communicate with it and a replay is likely going to fail.

Streamdal will replay data to the destination from the following IP’s.

Optimal Destination (Geo) Location

Streamdal’s “replayers” are hosted in AWS in the us-west-2 region.

To optimize for throughput, your destinations should be located as physically close as possible to Streamdal’s servers.

If you are unable to “get closer” and require high throughput 10,000+ events/s, reach out to us and we’ll see what we can do about standing up infrastructure that’s located closer to you.
