Hi there,

Nebula is a real-time analytics engine, implemented in C++, specialized working great with Kafka. And it’s open-source software.

It’s super easy to use - just one table configuration for your target topic in a YAML file, launch it from a single host or a cluster (Kubernetes, or just a list of VMs). Right away, you can start exploring your data from a web UI.

**Features include:**

- search data, filter records
- aggregate data with multiple dimensions x multiple metrics
- See timeline
- REST API to build applications if you need more than its web UI

A quick demo is available on the project homepage, or this [link](https://youtu.be/RpHJgqEStQ0).

Check it out, and let me know if you find it useful.
