Event stream compression and trimmed payloads
Back to Changelog
We enabled producer compression and trimmed the on-the-wire event payload across the Data pipeline.
- All event-stream producers across the Data pipeline now use compression.
- The events schema was pruned of fields that downstream consumers never read, reducing per-event size.
- An optimized event format is now used for analytical consumers; the legacy unbounded payload is no longer published.
- Result: lower internal storage usage and faster replay performance for backfills and recovery scenarios.
