Streambed – Stream Postgres to Iceberg on S3, Supports Postgres Wire

Streambed enables real-time streaming of PostgreSQL data directly to Apache Iceberg tables on S3, while also supporting the Postgres wire protocol for seamless integration. It is designed for data engineers and platform teams who need to replicate operational databases into a modern data lakehouse without complex ETL pipelines. The project is interesting because it combines CDC (change data capture) with Iceberg’s open table format, offering low-latency, ACID-compliant analytics on fresh transactional data.
