What is Bergwerk StreamCast?
Bergwerk built Bergwerk StreamCast for workloads that outgrow DIY setups: consistent latency, honest limits, and one-line failover between zones. The service bills by the minute, scales vertically and horizontally, and exposes every metric through an open API. Bergwerk operates it as a fully managed service: patching, capacity, and failover are handled upstream, while access controls and spend alerts stay in your hands.
Key features
- Sub-minute provisioning through console, CLI, or API
- Automatic replication across availability zones
- Drop-in Terraform provider and CloudFormation templates
- Transparent egress rates published per region
- Granular metrics exported to your own monitoring stack
Typical use cases
- Data pipelines that need predictable throughput at a fixed cost
- SaaS platforms scaling from first customer to full estate
- Media and content workloads with heavy read traffic
- Internal platforms serving dozens of product teams
Why Bergwerk?
Bergwerk publishes list prices for every region and never gates core capabilities behind enterprise-only tiers. Capacity is pre-provisioned, so the performance you benchmark in a sandbox is the performance you get in production. And because egress rates are flat, the bill at the end of the month matches the estimate you made at the start.
Getting started
Create an account, pick a region, and the default configuration is live in under a minute. The quickstart walks through your first deployment in about ten minutes, and the managed Terraform module turns the same setup into code you can review.
