    Overview

    Zilla Plus is an enterprise-ready, Kafka-native edge, and service proxy. It is a flexible, secure, and reliable way of creating stateless, multi-protocol API entry points into your Amazon MSK cluster for both native and non-native Kafka clients.

    With Zilla Plus, you can create publicly reachable Kafka endpoints into an Amazon MSK cluster. You can also expose topics inside your Amazon MSK cluster via declaratively defined REST, SSE, gRPC, and MQTT APIs.

    See the CloudFormation template(s) below to facilitate configuring and deploying Zilla Plus for your connectivity use case.

    Once Zilla Plus is deployed, its configuration can be updated to support additional connectivity patterns, i.e. a single Zilla instance can support Kafka, REST, and MQTT clients at once.

    Highlights

    • Flexibility: Seamlessly connect both native and non-native Kafka clients to your Amazon MSK cluster. Declaratively defined Kafka, REST, SSE, gRPC, and MQTT APIs on top of your cluster.
    • Security: Integrations with AWS Secrets Manager and AWS Certificate Manager.
    • Performance: Zilla proxies are stateless and scale out linearly. When multiple Zilla instances are deployed, only a single NLB is required, even if there are multiple brokers present.

    Secure Public Access (Unauthorized/SASL)

    The following CloudFormation template configures Zilla as a Kafka proxy that enables secure, flexible public internet access to a privately-networked AWS MSK cluster. This allows Kafka clients from outside the private network access to the full functionality of your Amazon MSK cluster. For example, to manage topics (create/update/delete) and to produce to/consume from topics. It also supports connecting to a private cluster from a local machine as well as setting up access for third parties, such as partners.

    Key features include:

    • Deploy once and enable on-premise or cross-cloud Kafka clients to securely reach your MSK cluster, even if the number of brokers in the cluster changes over time
    • Support for custom DNS names via the public internet
    • Integrations with AWS Certificate Manager and AWS Secrets Manager

    Zilla does not require any changes to the underlying cluster, maintaining the privacy and security benefits of a private network.

    When multiple Zilla instances are deployed, only a single NLB is required, even if there are multiple brokers present.

    CloudFormation Template (CFT)

    AWS CloudFormation templates are JSON or YAML-formatted text files that simplify provisioning and management on AWS. The templates describe the service or application architecture you want to deploy, and AWS CloudFormation uses those templates to provision and configure the required services (such as Amazon EC2 instances or Amazon RDS DB instances). The deployed application and associated resources are called a "stack."
