Hi Mathieu, Have you had a chance to look at http://rocksdb.org/blog/2033/rocksdb-is-now-available-in-windows-platform/? <http://rocksdb.org/blog/2033/rocksdb-is-now-available-in-windows-platform/?> Curious to hear your and other's comments on whether that worked.
It is possible to have Kafka Streams use an in-memory store (included with Kafka Streams) for development purposes. In that scenario RocksDb would not be needed.
