Orchestrate Real-Time Data Streams at Scale
Ditch brittle ETL batch jobs and locked-in iPaaS. layline.io's reactive engine turns chaotic event streams into reliable, scalable dataflows—so your devs build fast, and your ops run forever.
Platform Capabilities
Built for real-time at scale, designed for developer velocity
Infinite horizontal scale.
Scale from 1K to 10M+ events/second without code changes. Add nodes to your cluster and watch throughput grow linearly. Cluster mesh distributes workloads across regions, zones, or edge locations. Auto-scaling policies adjust capacity in real-time based on traffic patterns.
Example scaling pattern. Actual performance depends on workload complexity, data volume, and infrastructure.
Low-latency event processing.
Reactive Engine processes events in single-digit milliseconds with predictable latency. Backpressure handling prevents cascading failures when traffic spikes—events flow through gracefully instead of crashing your pipeline. Hot-reload config changes without restarting containers.
Build pipelines in hours, not weeks.
Visual workflow editor accelerates pipeline development—drag, drop, configure your data flows in minutes. When you need custom logic, drop in JavaScript or Python processors seamlessly. Manage multiple deployment targets with environment-specific parameters—all within a single project. Manage configs with your favorite version control system.
Carrier-grade reliability built-in.
Zero-downtime upgrades, exactly-once delivery guarantees, and automatic failover. Built-in audit trails track every event from source to destination. Real-time observability with Prometheus metrics support means you catch issues before customers do.

Technical Architecture
Reactive streams, distributed processing, and developer-first design
How It All Works Together
layline.io orchestrates data flow from any source to any destination using a reactive, event-driven architecture. Events flow through processors that transform, enrich, aggregate, and route data—all with backpressure handling and exactly-once delivery guarantees.
Kafka
REST APIs
Databases
layline.io Reactive Engines
Data Lakes
Analytics
Webhooks
Reactive Streams
Pekko actors handle backpressure and asynchronous processing
Processors
Mapping and filtering processors plus custom JavaScript/Python logic
Error Handling
Transaction control with commit/rollback support
Reactive Streams with Apache Pekko
Built on battle-tested Pekko actors for non-blocking, asynchronous event processing
Backpressure Handling
Downstream slow? No problem. Reactive streams automatically signal upstream to slow down, preventing memory overflow and cascading failures.
Error Handling & Recovery
Transaction control with commit/rollback support ensures data integrity. Define custom error handling policies and recovery strategies per workflow step.
