Apache Kafka Migration to Amazon MSK
Reduce TCO of managing Apache Kafka clusters by migrating your streaming data processing capacity to Amazon MSK
Let's talkSpend less time managing infrastructure and more time building applications by moving your Apache Kafka to AWS
Apache Kafka is a leading distributed event streaming platform operating in a $1.8 Bn market. Apache Kafka deployments and clusters are used by 20,000 enterprises that need high volume stream processing, but they are difficult to run and manage on-premises. The explosion of data has created a growing need for cost-effective real-time analytics, now provided by AWS through its Amazon MSK service, at 40-50% less cost.

Migration Scenarios
Apache Kafka on-premises or Amazon EC2 to Amazon MSK. This migration pattern is also referred to as Lift-and-Shift.
Any Apache Kafka distro or cloud service to Amazon MSK with a new architecture and complementary services to provide additional functionality, observability, scalability, reduced cost, and flexibility.
Moving an Apache Kafka workload to AWS and creating a new architecture, which may include Containers, Streaming applications, etc. The workload remains the same or with added functionality.
Migration Considerations We Address
