About

Built by practitioners for governed event execution.

StreamKernel LLC builds commercial runtime software for teams that need policy enforcement, inference, provenance, cost control, audit evidence, and delivery inside the event path.

Founder background

A runtime born from repeated regulated-data problems.

StreamKernel was built by a former Confluent Solutions Architect who saw the same governed event execution problem across financial services, defense, and healthcare clients - teams needed policy enforcement, provenance, cost controls, and audit evidence in the event path but kept building it themselves. StreamKernel is that runtime, hardened and licensed for production.

Practitioner history

  • Former Confluent Solutions Architect.
  • Professional background across FedEx, Red Hat, and MITRE.
  • Founder and Technical Architect: Steven Lopez.
  • Company base: Orlando, FL.

Research anchor

The public research library carries the deeper evidence trail.

Program office reviewers, architecture teams, and regulated buyers can review public-sector provenance, air-gapped telemetry governance, healthcare PHI governance, agent tool audit, and benchmark evidence before a commercial conversation.

Recommended review path

  • Start with Continuous Inference Provenance for Public Sector AI.
  • Review air-gapped defense telemetry governance for disconnected deployment framing.
  • Use benchmark notes to separate reproducible local evidence from production guarantees.
  • Bring questions about deployment boundaries, provenance, policy, and licensing into the technical demo.
