Open Source Outbound Webhooks and Event Destinations Infrastructure
Outpost is a self-hosted and open-source infrastructure that enables event producers to add outbound webhooks and Event Destinations to their platform with support for destination types such as Webhooks, Hookdeck Event Gateway, Amazon EventBridge, AWS SQS, AWS SNS, GCP Pub/Sub, RabbitMQ, and Kafka.
The Outpost runtime has minimal dependencies (Redis, PostgreSQL or Clickhouse, and one of the supported message queues), is 100% backward compatible with your existing webhooks implementation and is optimized for high-throughput, low-cost operation.
Outpost is built and maintained by Hookdeck. It's written in Go and distributed as a binary and Docker container under the Apache-2.0 license.
