Redpanda SQL: one engine for the infinite stream (preview)
The AI era demands broad and deep context windows, but most data architectures are split into two. Live data lives in streams, historical context sits in a data lake, and getting them to work together means ETL, connectors, and a stack that keeps growing. Redpanda SQL is here to end it. In this Tech Talk, Redpanda's product and engineering leaders take you inside Redpanda SQL (now generally available)—a Postgres API-compatible query engine powered by our acquisition of Oxla. What you'll learn: - Why querying the infinite stream is the new standard for AI context windows - How to JOIN live Redpanda topics with historical Iceberg data in a single SQL statement - What zero-movement efficiency, unified RBAC, and governed agent access look like in practice Watch the full session on Redpanda SQL: https://www.redpanda.com/events/redpanda-sql-tech-talk
