Overview
AutoMQ for Kafka, while maintaining 100% compatibility with Apache Kafka, offers users over 50% cost savings and a hundredfold increase in elasticity. It also supports partition reassignment in seconds and auto balancing.
Highlights
- Cost optimization of over 50%. The AutoMQ BYOC (Bring Your Own Cloud) edition leverages a new cloud-native architecture that fully utilizes object storage, Spot instances, and other cloud services for high data availability and elastic provisioning. Compared to other solutions based on Apache Kafka, it can save more than 50% in overall costs.
- Serverless: - Auto Scaling: Monitor cluster metrics and automatically scale in/out to align with your workload, enabling a pay-as-you-go model. - Scaling in seconds: The computing layer (broker) is stateless and can scale in/out within seconds, making AutoMQ a truly serverless solution. - Infinite scalable: Utilize cloud object storage as the primary storage solution, eliminating concerns about storage capacity.
- A superior alternative to Apache Kafka: - 100% compatible with Apache Kafka and does not lose any key features, but cheaper and better.

Delivery details
AutoMQ for Kafka BYOC Deployment
The AutoMQ for Kafka (BYOC Deployment) mainly consists of a WebConsole and several AutoMQ clusters. The WebConsole is deployed in an availability zone and subnet that support public network transmission, providing WebUI services to customers. The WebConsole deploys AutoMQ clusters through the ASG API. Each AutoMQ cluster can be deployed in either one availability zone or three availability zones, depending on the customer's choice. By default, AutoMQ clusters are deployed in private subnets, offering data services only within the VPC. AutoMQ clusters access S3 services and EC2 API services through the S3 Gateway Endpoint.
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."
Version release notes
AutoMQ Cloud BYOC v1.4.0 is now available on AWS Marketplace.
- The S3WAL storage mode supports multi-point writes, which can save cross-AZ traffic costs in AWS environments.
- Upgraded the kernel version to be compatible with Apache Kafka version 3.9.
