Happy Wednesday! We have a new video up on our YouTube channel: Ryan Worl shares his journey to build platforms for metrics and events - from Uber to Datadog to WarpStream. He is super funny and drops serious knowledge on S3-based architectures and monitoring SaaS. My favorite quotes are "What if we built Snowflake for Observability", “S3 is infinitely large array of hard drives that is way oversubscribed” and “I thought it will be cool to rewrite Kafka on S3”. (and thanks to @Caleb Grillo for connecting me with Ryan)

the thumbnail looks great. Looking forward to watching this. Kafka on s3 is such a clever idea
