What believers are saying
- Redpanda added ockam_kafka in version 4.33.0, validating product adoption inside production tooling.
- Ockam launched eight Snowflake Marketplace connectors in November 2024, expanding enterprise reach.
- The company still benefits from open-source credibility and audited security in regulated enterprise deals.
What critics are saying
- Snowflake and Redpanda can commoditize Ockam's connectors by bundling native zero-trust features.
- Dealroom shows 2026 revenue at $38.5M, down 4.6%, signaling slowing demand.
- If platform partners replace Ockam with built-in security, Ockam loses distribution and relevance.
What makes Ockam unique
- Ockam sells networkless zero-trust access, removing VPNs, firewalls, and public endpoints.
- Its Rust, open-source secure channels handle encryption, authentication, rotation, and revocation end-to-end.
- Snowflake and Redpanda integrations embed Ockam directly into data platforms and Kafka flows.
