Connect Kafka and
PostgreSQL with AI

Redbird AI automates the flow between your event streams and relational database. Stop writing custom consumers, managing offset commits, and building batch jobs to land Kafka data in PostgreSQL—Redbird handles schema evolution, transformations, and reliable persistence automatically.

What you can automate today

Redbird gives your team ready-to-run workflows — just connect your accounts and go.

Stream Kafka events directly into PostgreSQL tables with automatic schema mapping

Consume messages from Kafka topics and insert them into PostgreSQL tables in real time. Redbird automatically maps event schemas to table columns, handles data type conversions, and manages consumer offsets so your operational database stays current with every event.

Publish PostgreSQL database changes to Kafka topics for event-driven architectures

Capture inserts, updates, and deletes from PostgreSQL tables and publish them as events to Kafka topics. Enable downstream services to react to database changes without polling or tight coupling, supporting event sourcing and CQRS patterns.

Aggregate streaming Kafka data into PostgreSQL summary tables for analytics

Process high-volume Kafka streams and write aggregated metrics, rollups, and time-windowed summaries into PostgreSQL. Transform raw clickstream or sensor data into queryable analytics tables without building Kafka Streams applications or Flink jobs.

Enrich Kafka events with PostgreSQL reference data before downstream processing

Read events from Kafka, lookup related records in PostgreSQL tables, and write enriched messages back to a target Kafka topic. Add customer profiles, product details, or geolocation data to raw events without maintaining complex join logic in stream processors.

Archive historical Kafka messages to PostgreSQL partitioned tables for compliance

Automatically consume and store Kafka message history in time-partitioned PostgreSQL tables for audit trails and regulatory compliance. Redbird manages partition creation, data retention policies, and efficient bulk loading without custom archival scripts.

Trigger Kafka notifications when PostgreSQL data meets specific business conditions

Monitor PostgreSQL tables for threshold breaches, status changes, or anomalies and publish structured events to Kafka topics. Enable real-time alerting and downstream workflows when critical business conditions occur in your operational database.

Live in four steps

No engineers, no pipelines to maintain. Redbird handles the connectivity — you focus on the outcome.

01

Connect your accounts

Authorize Kafka and PostgreSQL with OAuth or API credentials. Redbird never stores your data — it just passes through.

02

Describe what you want

Tell Redbird what to do in plain language — no SQL, no code, no configuration files required.

03

Review and activate

Redbird shows you exactly what it will do before running anything. Approve the workflow, set a schedule, and switch it on.

04

Let it run — and iterate

Workflows run on your schedule or on triggers. Every run is logged. Adjust with natural language at any time.

Built for data-driven teams

Redbird understands both Kafka message schemas and PostgreSQL table structures, automatically handling serialization formats, data types, and schema evolution across your streaming and relational layers.

AI that understands event streams and relational schemas

Redbird parses Avro, JSON, and Protobuf message formats from Kafka and intelligently maps them to PostgreSQL column types and constraints. It detects schema changes in your Kafka topics and adapts table structures accordingly, handles nested JSON fields with PostgreSQL's JSONB support, and optimizes bulk inserts with COPY operations. When moving data from PostgreSQL to Kafka, Redbird automatically serializes table rows into properly formatted messages with schema registry integration.

faster than building custom Kafka consumers and database writers

No KafkaConsumer boilerplate, connection pooling logic, or manual offset commit handling required

Auto-generated reports

Redbird can pull from Kafka and PostgreSQL simultaneously, merge the results, and format a polished report — sent on a schedule or on demand.

Trigger-based alerts

Set conditions in natural language. Get notified in Slack or email the moment a threshold is crossed in either Kafka or PostgreSQL.

Enterprise-grade security

SOC 2 Type II certified. Data flows encrypted in transit and at rest. Fine-grained permission controls with full audit logs.

Bidirectional sync

Push data from Kafka into PostgreSQL, or from PostgreSQL back into Kafka. Resolve conflicts with configurable merge rules.

Full audit trail

Every workflow run is logged — what ran, what changed, and why. Replay or revert any individual step at any time.

Triggers & actions for every team

Start automations from new Kafka messages or PostgreSQL table changes and take action across both platforms.

Kafka

Triggers when consumer group lag crosses a defined threshold for monitoring.

Trigger

Message matches filter condition

Activates when message content meets specific field values or patterns.

Action

Publish message to topic

Write a new event to a Kafka topic with specified key and value.

Action

Create topic

Provision a new Kafka topic with defined partition count and replication factor.

Action

Update consumer group offset

Manually set or reset consumer group offsets for replay or skip scenarios.

PostgreSQL
