Kafka

You’ll get a durable message / event stream for apps in an environment.

Choose this when

  • Apps need producers and consumers on a shared event bus
  • You want Kafka managed as a ready-made app instead of a custom image

What you get

  • Kafka in your environment
  • Internal endpoints for producers and consumers
  • Disk / storage and copies for retention and capacity
