Rudder Server is the core of RudderStack, a customer data platform for developers. It provides data pipelines that collect data from applications, websites and SaaS platforms and then deliver it to your data warehouse and business tools, positioning itself as a privacy and security focused alternative to Segment.
RudderStack treats the warehouse as a first-class destination, with configurable near real-time sync, and it is built API-first around SDKs and event source integrations. It supports event streaming as well as cloud-to-warehouse ELT, with Cloud Extract integrations, transformations and a broad library of destination and warehouse integrations including BigQuery, Redshift and Snowflake.
The server is written in Go, and the project offers RudderStack Cloud with a free tier for teams that do not want to host it. The README highlights a built-in error handling and retry system for reliability. Documentation, a changelog, a blog and a Slack community are linked from the README.
