Streams

Streams is planned as a replayable event log: topics, partitions, offsets, and consumer groups. Independent applications could read the same topic at their own pace. It is not available yet.

For work items today, use Queue. For fan-out notifications, use Events.

Status: Preview stub — not available yet.

Intended contract

  • Producers append records to logical topic names.
  • Records are ordered within a partition, not across partitions.
  • Consumer groups track offsets so independent applications can replay the same topic.
  • Queue remains the service for visibility timeouts, long polling, receipt handles, and dead-letter work.

What you can use today

No streams API is available today. Use Queue for work items.
