simplify maintaning kafka
Professional and flexible
What do you like best about the product?
Reason for choosing Aiven was primarily their willingness to include new technologies, specifically the TimeScale plugin. A stable, scalable and secure platform, guaranteed to reside inside the EU with professional services available also played a key role.
What do you dislike about the product?
Pricing scheme is difficult to work / budget with.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We worry less on database hosting, easy scalability and high up-time. Working with professional providers is a requirement from many of our customers.
Great MQ as a service
What do you like best about the product?
Not worring about infra is the best thing.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing so far, everything that I needed from Aiven was ok.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Since we have a microservices architecture we have a lot of events to notify to a lot of services, so, this is what we accomplish with Aiven and without worring about infra in general, just with the business logic.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Easy to use, fair price and stable.
Great experience, very easy to get up and running
What do you like best about the product?
I like how quickly we can set up and tear down a Kafka cluster. It made the trial painless. Support was on point and I'm glad we can peer it to our AWS VPC.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing, so far, we are having a great experience with Aiven.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are building an event-based architecture so we're going to use Kafka for producing and consuming event messages.
Quick and easy way to get a Kafka Broker
What do you like best about the product?
The graphical interface is really easy to use.
The "getting started" documentations is straigthforward and contains example for a lot of different languages which is cool because I use the solution from multiple languages.
The cluster is quick to bootsrap.

What do you dislike about the product?
The monitoring capabilities is limited to Influxdb/Grafana, and there is no default grafana dashboard so we have to build our own.
There is a way to get a Prometheus endpoint but as we don't have Prometheus it's not a solution for us.
Maybe a way to open the JMX port to enable more external integration will be a good addons.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Kafka for asynchronous messaging inside our customer repository. It allow us to decouple parts of our application (data synchronization between component, search indexation).
Aiven helps me to have wide seen about my kafka topics
What do you like best about the product?
I really like the way Aiven shows the topics and its offsets, consumer groups, and consumer groups offsets.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to be able to search into the topics by Aiven I believe it would be very helpful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have more flexibility to enforce more time in other problems instead to spend time managing kafka.
quick support, simple setup, features I need
What do you like best about the product?
ease of use, option of cloud providers, access management
What do you dislike about the product?
can't rename a project, missing axis labels in metrics
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
efficient storage and querying of time series data within a relational DB. Other cloud providers would not offer the timescaledb postgres extension which is vital to achieving our business goals.
Aiven Kafka

What do you dislike about the product?
Could have a better topics/schema registry UI
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We created independent teams, with independent technology, we're using Kafka to do it
