"Review about Amazon Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka (Amazon MSK)"
What do you like best about Amazon Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka (Amazon MSK)?

This is a fully managed service that enables to built and run of an application & to process streaming data, the best feature of this application is it's AWS CLI which is the best one, I can use the AWS Command-line interface or the APIs in the SDK to create or delete an Amazon MSK cluster. THIS IS THE BEST ONE. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka (Amazon MSK)?

zookeeper-nodes is an open-source some times disturb too much so I dislike this and also following limits in these features are not good

1-Up to 90 brokers per account and 30 brokers per cluster

2- a minimum of 1 GiB of storage per broker

3-Up to 100 configurations per account

4-A maximum of 16384 GiB of storage per broker

these features are limited, if you need high than this you must make a request & wait for approval, it could take time to approve, this feature can be solved Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
