You can now use Amazon MSK Replicator to replicate streaming data across Amazon Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka (Amazon MSK) clusters in US West (N. California), Asia Pacific (Mumbai), Asia Pacific (Seoul), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), Canada (Central), Europe (London), Europe (Paris), Europe (Stockholm), and South America (Sao Paulo) AWS regions.
MSK Replicator is a feature of Amazon MSK that enables you to reliably replicate data across Amazon MSK clusters in different or the same AWS region(s) in a few clicks. With MSK Replicator, you can easily build regionally resilient streaming applications for increased availability and business continuity. MSK Replicator provides automatic asynchronous replication across MSK clusters, eliminating the need to write custom code, manage infrastructure, or setup cross-region networking.
MSK Replicator automatically scales the underlying resources so that you can replicate data on-demand without having to monitor or scale capacity. MSK Replicator also replicates the necessary Kafka metadata including topic configurations, Access Control Lists (ACLs), and consumer group offsets. If an unexpected event occurs in a region, you can failover to the other AWS region and seamlessly resume processing.
With these launches, MSK Replicator is now available in the following AWS Regions: US East (N. Virginia), US East (Ohio), US West (N. California), US West (Oregon), Asia Pacific (Mumbai), Asia Pacific (Seoul), Asia Pacific (Singapore), Asia Pacific (Sydney), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), Canada (Central), Europe (Frankfurt), Europe (Ireland), Europe (London), Europe (Paris), Europe (Stockholm), and South America (Sao Paulo).
