Does anyone know what is happening with Pulsar since Splunk brought them out?
It looks to of stagnated since the announcement was made.
Architecture wise Pulsar is a far better piece of engineering than Kafka but with Confluent's funding and aggressive marketing it looks like Kafka has cornered the market for better or worse.
Yes, you can run SQL using Presto [1], and by connecting.
Not sure about ksqlDB as I am not familiar with it, but my understanding is Apache Flink would give you analog capabilities. Pulsar has IO capabilities analog to Kafka Connect [2]. Analogous to Kafka Streams, Pulsar offers Functions [3].

StreamNative is the company behind the linked blog post and project.
My (outsider) understanding is that both Streamlio and Splunk employ(ed) active members of the Pulsar community.

Also, Kafka has:
* ksql * ksqlDB * Kafka Connect * Kafka Streams
Does Pulsar has something comparable?
