A fully managed distributed data streaming platform, deployable in the cloud of your choice. Ideal for event-driven applications, near-real-time data transfer and pipelines, stream analytics, and any other case where you need to move a lot of data between applications — and quickly. With Aiven’s hosted and managed-for-you Apache Kafka, you can set up clusters, deploy new nodes, migrate clouds, and upgrade existing versions — in a single mouse click — and monitor them through a simple dashboard.

Amazon MSK
Amazon MSK
Amazon Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka (Amazon MSK) is a fully managed service that makes it easy for you to build and run applications that use Apache Kafka to process streaming data. Apache Kafka is an open-source platform for building real-time streaming data pipelines and applications. With Amazon MSK, you can use native Apache Kafka APIs to populate data lakes, stream changes to and from databases, and power machine learning and analytics applications. Apache Kafka clusters are challenging to setup, scale, and manage in production. When you run Apache Kafka on your own, you need to provision servers, configure Apache Kafka manually, replace servers when they fail, orchestrate server patches and upgrades, architect the cluster for high availability, ensure data is durably stored and secured, setup monitoring and alarms, and carefully plan scaling events to support load changes.
