description: Quix is a Python-native stream-processing platform for real-time data
  and ML. It pairs Quix Streams - an open source (Apache 2.0) Python library for
  building containerized stream-processing applications on Apache Kafka - with Quix
  Cloud, a fully managed platform offering managed Kafka, Kubernetes deployments,
  and a set of HTTP and SignalR/WebSocket APIs for writing data in, reading data out
  in real time, and managing workspaces, topics, and deployments.
