OpenReplay vs Apache StreamPark
A side-by-side editorial comparison of OpenReplay and Apache StreamPark — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
OpenReplay vs Apache StreamPark: at a glance
What is OpenReplay?
OpenReplay moves its Go backend to pgx v5 and patches vulnerable deps across 1.25–1.27.
On Oct 28 OpenReplay pushed backup tags on the 1.25, 1.26 and 1.27 lines that migrate the Go backend to pgx v5, bump vulnerable Go dependencies such as golang.org/x/net, and then fix a replay query that broke under the migration by casting issue_types to text. The previous days moved the assist and sourcemap-reader services to Node 26 LTS on the same lines and on 1.22.
What is Apache StreamPark?
Five release candidates in two years, none of them stable, and none since October 2025.
StreamPark's tracked feed holds five release candidates spanning April 2024 to October 2025, and the notes are extremely thin — three of the five describe a single change each, one of them a Vue router naming bug. The most substantial entry, v2.1.7-rc1, lists four items: Maven argument validation, a license header consistency fix, a login authentication refinement and a Flink configuration file retrieval fix. No stable release appears anywhere in this record.

OpenReplay
5.0ANALYTICS
OpenReplay moves its Go backend to pgx v5 and patches vulnerable deps across 1.25–1.27.
◆ Current state
On Oct 28 OpenReplay pushed backup tags on the 1.25, 1.26 and 1.27 lines that migrate the Go backend to pgx v5, bump vulnerable Go dependencies such as golang.org/x/net, and then fix a replay query that broke under the migration by casting issue_types to text. The previous days moved the assist and sourcemap-reader services to Node 26 LTS on the same lines and on 1.22.
◆ Where it's heading
The release feed is all maintenance: dependency and runtime upgrades backported to several self-hosted lines at once, published as timestamped backup tags without feature notes. The quick follow-up fix shows the pgx migration is touching real query paths.
◆ Prediction
Expect more backup tags as the pgx v5 change reaches 1.22 and any further query fixes land; nothing in the entries points to a feature release.
Apache StreamPark
0.0ANALYTICS
Five release candidates in two years, none of them stable, and none since October 2025.
◆ Current state
StreamPark's tracked feed holds five release candidates spanning April 2024 to October 2025, and the notes are extremely thin — three of the five describe a single change each, one of them a Vue router naming bug. The most substantial entry, v2.1.7-rc1, lists four items: Maven argument validation, a license header consistency fix, a login authentication refinement and a Flink configuration file retrieval fix. No stable release appears anywhere in this record.
◆ Where it's heading
Nothing in these entries describes new capability for the stream processing platform itself. The changes cluster around build tooling, authentication and the web console — the periphery of the product rather than its Flink and Spark job management core. Combined with a cadence of roughly two releases a year and a nine-month gap since the last one, the visible signal is a project in low-activity maintenance.
◆ Prediction
The entries do not support a prediction about direction. What they do warrant is checking whether development moved somewhere this feed does not capture, since a stream processing platform with no stable releases on record is more likely a tracking gap than a complete picture.
