Kalix’s unique architecture offers an out-of-the-box cloud-native stack, eliminating the need for wiring and integration with databases, caches, service meshes and API gateways, allowing developers to gain precious time. Kalix can support traditional key-value state models as well as more sophisticated state models, such as Event Sourcing and CQRS, making it easy to develop high-performance, large-scale applications. Because Kalix is a managed Kubernetes-based platform, developers don’t have to worry about scalability, security, or distributed data management techniques. Since developers don’t have to worry about the underlying infrastructure, they can focus entirely on building cloud-native applications for their specific vertical industries.
