Effortless kafka management using Aiven

  • December 10, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Aiven provides highly available Kafka features and significant redundancy. Kafka clusters boast automatic replication across multiple availability zones, guaranteeing top-notch data durability with minimal downtime.

Aiven provides end-to-end data encryption for data in transit and at rest, as well as SSO login, making it a secure choice for sensitive data.

Aiven offers seamless integration with popular tools like Prometheus and Grafana for monitoring and alerting. It simplifies the process of monitoring Kafka cluster health.
What do you dislike about the product?
Aiven abstracts most of the underlying infrastructure management, which can be both an advantage and a drawback. However, engineers with more experience may desire more control over Kafka configurations and cluster settings, which is not possible.

The logs for Kafka Connect are not separated per connector, making it difficult to retrieve logs for a specific connector.

Sometimes, the Aiven User Interface can be buggy, particularly when it comes to Kafka connectors. These connectors may display incorrect statuses, causing confusion and potential issues.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Aiven for Apache Kafka is helping our business solve a few key problems. Firstly, it provides a reliable and scalable platform for managing our data streaming needs. With Aiven, we are able to easily set up and configure Kafka clusters, and the platform takes care of the underlying infrastructure, ensuring high availability and fault tolerance.

Additionally, Aiven for Apache Kafka provides a range of advanced features and integrations, such as support for multiple protocols and connectors, which allows us to easily integrate Kafka with other systems and tools in our tech stack.

Overall, using Aiven for Apache Kafka has helped us streamline our data streaming processes and improve the reliability and scalability of our infrastructure.

Simply scalability with Aiven

  • December 06, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Aiven Kafka services offer a plethora of advantages that significantly elevate the efficiency and reliability of data streaming and processing. In my opinion, the primary benefit is the ease of scalability. With Aiven Kafka, I can effortlessly scale their clusters to handle varying workloads and accommodate growing data volumes. This eliminates the need for manual intervention and ensures seamless performance even during periods of increased demand.
What do you dislike about the product?
Less control over the configuration and tuning of the Kafka cluster. If your use case requires fine-grained control over Kafka settings, a managed service might not be the best fit
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Aiven kafka allows abstracting away the underlying infrastructure and operational complexities. This allows my team to focus on building and managing applications rather than dealing with the intricacies of Kafka cluster deployment and maintenance.
