S2 Dev

S2 ("Stream Store") is the API for unlimited, durable, real-time streams. Where object storage deals with blobs, S2 provides append-able, ordered record streams that can be tailed in real time and replayed from any retained point. Core data-plane operations are append, read, and check-tail; the control plane manages accounts, basins (stream namespaces), streams, scoped access tokens, locations, and metrics. It targets agent session logs, live views and build logs, event sourcing and sync, data feeds, resumable LLM token streaming, and observability. Access is over a REST/JSON + Protobuf HTTP API, an S2S binary protocol over HTTP/2, SSE tailing, first-party TypeScript, Python, Go, and Rust SDKs, a CLI, and a Terraform provider. S2 is a Y Combinator-backed company.

S2 Dev publishes 6 APIs on the APIs.io network, including access-tokens API, basins API, locations API, and 3 more. Tagged areas include Company, Streaming, Real-Time, Event Streaming, and Durable Storage.

S2 Dev’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, pricing, and 31 more developer resources.
