Support policy

IBM Event Streams incorporates both IBM proprietary and open source components, including Apache Kafka. In case of a problem with any of these components, IBM will investigate, identify, and provide a fix when possible. Where the fix applies to an open source component, IBM will work with the open source community to contribute the fix to the open source project as appropriate.

If you encounter client-side issues when using Event Streams with clients that are not provided by IBM, IBM can assist you in working with the open source community to resolve those issues.
