Build Real-Time Streaming Analytics and Event-Driven Architecture with Amazon MSK Delivery Partners
By Sam Anand, Sr. PDS, Analytics – AWS
By Joanne Moore, Launch Product Manager – AWS
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is excited to announce the Amazon Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka (MSK) Delivery specialization to help customers find validated AWS Partners with proven success delivering migrations and building solutions on Amazon MSK.
Amazon MSK is a fully managed service that makes it easy to build and run applications that use Apache Kafka to process streaming data. Amazon MSK provisions your servers, configures your Apache Kafka clusters, replaces servers when they fail, orchestrates server patches and upgrades, architects clusters for high availability, ensures data is durably stored and secured, sets up monitoring and alarms, and runs scaling to support load changes.
With a managed service, you can spend your time developing and running event streaming applications. With Amazon MSK Serverless, getting started with Apache Kafka is even easier. It automatically provisions and scales compute and storage resources and offers throughput-based pricing, so you can use Apache Kafka on demand and pay only for the data you stream and retain. Use cases include:
- Ingest and process log and event streams.
- Run centralized state or data buses.
- Power event-driven systems.
Customers migrating to Amazon MSK from Apache Kafka implementations that are either on-premises, on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2), or with other managed service provider realize cost savings with pay-as-you-go pricing.
Amazon MSK Delivery Partners are proficient in expeditiously implementing Amazon MSK integrations with other AWS services to improve the scope and specificity of real-time analytics.
