Aiven for Apache Kafka is transparent and easy to operate.
What do you like best about the product?
Aiven offers a diverse range of tools for interacting with their platform. I utilized Terraform to create a Kafka cluster, employed the CLI to extract the certificates, and utilized the console UI to create some testing topics. Additionally, Aiven allows us to access various metrics and logs from the instances, with the option to export them to Prometheus, among other possibilities.
What do you dislike about the product?
The Azure Privatelink feature needs to be more mature, it is still in the beta stage, and for us, this would be a requirement for production deployments, there was some features missing in their Terraform provider.
But we also configured VPC Peering that helped us to convey it.

Reliable and Responsive Kafka Hosting Service
What do you like best about the product?
We have been running Aiven’s Apache Kafka service in our Industrial IoT data ingestion system. They have been a reliable and responsive partner for our organization's event-driven architecture, enabling us to run our systems smoothly with a small team of engineers.
Their responsiveness to customer support requests is remarkable. Whenever we've encountered issues or needed assistance, their team has promptly and effectively addressed our concerns. With their deep expertise in Kafka, it is reassuring to have their knowledgeable professionals available to assist us whenever needed.

What do you dislike about the product?
The one limitation in using Aiven (or any managed Kafka service for that matter) is the difficulty to run custom connectors or plugins in your cluster. I understand the difficulty involved in taking in external code while providing gurantees or security and stability. Regardless, the benefits outweight this limitation and we are willing to pay the price of running our own little Connect cluster for our custom code as a satellite.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Aiven Apache Kafka powers our Industrial IoT data ingestion services. With Kafka we can ingest large quantities of data reliably while mantaining a lot of flexibility to evolve our data pipelines over time. With Kafka at the core of our architecture we can add or update our systems to scale or meet new requirements with reliability.
Highly reliable, configurable, and overall a greal experience!
What do you like best about the product?
Everything about Aiven has been great to power our company's analytics and has truly been a set-it-and-forget-it piece of our infrastructure. Aiven has been extremely responsive with their support and has been great at working with us to fit to our custom needs. We have had no notable outages in the last 3 years of our partnership together. It is flexibile with the cloud providers allowed and is very cost effective. Would recommend it!
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the thing that could use the most love would be the initial learning curve on how to set custom specifications. At the beginning we had to use settings that weren't well documented to have everything play smoothly, but the support quickly sorted that out.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It powers our data warehouse and serves as the point where all data flows through.
