Outpost

Hookdeck Outpost

Outpost is open-source infrastructure for delivering events to user-preferred destinations: Webhooks (HTTP), SQS, RabbitMQ, Pub/Sub, EventBridge, Kafka, and more. Apache 2.0 licensed, available as managed by Hookdeck or self-hosted.

When to Use Outpost

• You're building a SaaS or API platform and need to send webhooks to your users
• You need multi-destination support beyond HTTP webhooks (SQS, RabbitMQ, Pub/Sub, EventBridge, Kafka)
• You want self-hostable webhook delivery infrastructure
• You need multi-tenant support with per-user observability
• You want to offer your customers reliable, retryable event delivery
