AutoMQ

Hangzhou, China
Founded 2022

AutoMQ is a cloud-native, diskless alternative to Apache Kafka that runs on S3 or any S3-compatible object storage. Founded in 2022 by the original teams behind Apache RocketMQ and the Linux LVS project, AutoMQ re-engineers Kafka's architecture by decoupling storage to object storage, transforming the classic shared-nothing architecture into a shared storage architecture. This enables elastic auto-scaling in seconds, eliminates cross-AZ traffic costs, and reduces infrastructure costs by up to 90% compared to traditional Kafka deployments. AutoMQ maintains 100% compatibility with the Apache Kafka API, allowing seamless migration without application changes. It offers sub-10ms P99 latency, infinite scalable storage via cloud object storage, and built-in Prometheus/OpenTelemetry metrics export.
