We’ve made it into the semifinals! We were already thrilled to be part of the Slush 100—the most coveted startup competition in the world! Advancing to the top 50 and now the top 20 is a true testament to our hard work and the strength of our product. The semifinals are just one step away from the finals, and the finals are just one step from a €1,000,000 equity investment from Cherry Ventures and General Catalyst. We’re determined to go all the way.

You can set things up yourself in Flowcore if you want. But what if you didn’t have to? One of the best things about Flowcore is its customizability and flexibility – but starting from scratch isn’t for everyone. That’s why we’re working on something to help you dive into the action faster. We’re talking streamlined, reliable, cost-effective… and Kafka. If this sounds like something for you, stay tuned – it’s Coming Soon™️

Working with schema-less data? One of the chores is having to inspect the data before defining your structures. At Flowcore, we’re aiming to eliminate that extra step by letting you auto-generate data structures straight from your data core. By analysing events in your data core and using AI, Flowcore can auto-generate data structures based on your entries and output them in any programming language using your preferred framework. While this AI feature is still experimental, it’s already showing a lot of promise.

Do you want to get your hands on Flowcore? Last week, we had the pleasure of hosting two 2-hour workshops – what we like to call Flowcathon Minis.

100 became 50 – and we’re still in. We’ve made it through to the top 50, and now we’re gearing up to perfect our pitch for the next round: the top 20! Wishing the best of luck to the other 19 startups who are moving forward alongside us.

We’ve been busy updating our CLI! We use our CLI daily, so we always aim to keep it top-notch. That’s why it’s regularly updated, and we’re currently on version 4.1.1

Migrating from V1 to V2 with Flowcore: A Step-by-Step Guide. Migrating from a legacy system is a challenge that many developers face. The process can be fraught with risks like downtime, fragmented data sets, and increased code complexity. At Flowcore, we have developed a strategy that leverages our event-driven architecture to ease the transition from V1 to V2 systems.

The Flowcore Platform is a game-changer for developers looking to create and deploy data infrastructure with ease. It allows you to set up your data system using a simple manifest, ingest data through straightforward interfaces like webhooks or filehooks, and stream events out via a CLI, SDK, or Transformers deployed right on the platform. Don't let the simplicity fool you, though. While Flowcore aims to make working with data as easy as possible, it doesn't skimp on scalability. All components of the platform are designed to scale linearly, ensuring your infrastructure can grow with your needs.

Flowcore is in the Slush 100! The most coveted startup competition in the world. We’re beyond excited to have made it to the top 100 and even more pumped to compete with 99 other incredible startups.

Last week, we were at TechBBQ! René, Bergur, Brian and Ólavur represented Flowcore at the Tonik booth - the Faroese home base. It was an incredible opportunity to share what we’re building and engage with so many passionate people.

Flowcore is now available on Amazon Web Services (AWS)‍. We’re thrilled to announce that you can now set up a completely automatic, pay-as-you-go integration through our Flowcore Basic SaaS product. Additionally, we now offer consulting and onboarding services, all directly from the AWS Marketplace‍.

Why pay for individual data cores when you don’t have to?‍ We’re updating our lowest tier plan so you can get access to unlimited data cores - both public and private. That’s right! You can create and manage as many data cores as you need without worrying about hitting any limits.

Our CLI is getting lots of love!‍ We love our CLI, and even though it is already great, we want to polish it just that little bit extra whenever we get the chance.

At Flowcore, our mission is to create a platform so user-friendly that any developer can start using it right away, without any hassle. To achieve this, we are excited to announce that we’re working on an improved version of our platform.

We all know the age-old question: what came first, the chicken or the egg? But what actually came first: Flowcore or Flowcore? We’ll save you the trouble; it was Flowcore.

Why organise your data now, when you can do it later?‍ You really don’t have to stress about it. Just put all your data into a data core - yes, ALL of it - and then you can pick it apart whenever you need it. It really is that easy!

We've adopted a fresh methodology that we like to call Intent-Driven Development (IDD), shifting focus from system architecture and structures to the users and their intents during the planning phase.

In today's fast-paced digital landscape, businesses need data solutions that can adapt and evolve alongside them. With Flowcore, you can seamlessly store, manage, and transform vast amounts of data, all while prioritizing flexibility, scalability, and accessibility.

At Flowcore, we're committed to embracing an open-source-first approach.

At Flowcore, versatility is at the heart of everything we do. Our daily tasks vary greatly, allowing our developers not only to create solutions for our clients but also to continuously expand their own skill sets. Each new project introduces unique challenges that demand innovative solutions.

When we started developing LUTTAKA, using Flowcore as the backend, the graphical interface significantly slowed down the workflow. Having to add and remove flow-types and/or event-types every time we introduced or altered features within the app became tedious immediately. So instead of complaining about the problem, we made the solution: our CLI.

We were thrilled to see the enthusiastic turnout at the Flowcore booth, whether it was for cake, drinks, or to watch René Bischoff live code on the big screen.

Did you know that Flowcore made a general-purpose open-source Postgres Adapter?

Are you an event manager looking for a tool to enhance the event experience for your attendees? LUTTAKA is designed to benefit both event planners and participants.

Last Wednesday, we hosted students from The University of the Faroe Islands in our office for a workshop on Flowcore and how to contribute to LUTTAKA.

Flowcore has its own Discord Community Server!‍ This platform serves as an excellent hub for staying updated on our latest developments and provides a direct avenue for receiving support or reporting any issues you may encounter.

We felt that 'Open Source Conference App' was quite a mouthful, so we've decided to give it a new name. In Faroese, 'At luttaka' means to participate, and that is exactly what we’re hoping people will do: Participate in events using LUTTAKA.

Exciting news! Groundcover has just published a customer story featuring Flowcore!

Flowcore is thrilled to introduce our first open-source project! We are proud to announce our work on an open-source conference app, set to debut at Tonik in May.
