Redpanda Connect has introduced dynamic plugins, a new feature that enhances its data streaming platform by allowing for runtime plugin creation and loading, offering greater flexibility and language interoperability. Previously, plugins needed to be built in Go and compiled directly into the Redpanda Connect binary, but the new dynamic plugins framework enables the use of external executables that communicate with the main process via gRPC. This supports plugins in any language that supports gRPC, such as Python, thus lowering barriers for data scientists and ML engineers who prefer programming in languages other than Go. The new system uses gRPC for efficient data transfer and process isolation, enabling independent deployment and modular design while maintaining performance. The dynamic plugins are particularly beneficial for integrating non-Go libraries, performing complex data transformations, and facilitating real-time machine learning inference, with SDKs available for both Go and Python to streamline development. While dynamic plugins provide flexibility and ease of integration, compiled plugins are still recommended for performance-critical applications. The introduction of this feature marks a significant advancement for Redpanda Connect, expanding its capabilities and opening new possibilities for data streaming applications.
