Hi Stuart,Below are some AWS tips. The list could go on and on, so I tried to mention pieces that are most important, and also address your specific questions:
- The number of Kafka clusters depends on the use case, in particular if the application is cross-datacenter. In a lot of cases that are single datacenter, a single Kafka cluster in one region, spread across multiple availability zones, is a good configuration. This setup would survive an entire availability zone going down.
- EBS performs better than instance storage, but costs more. Be sure that the Kafka broker log is on a different EBS volume than the OS.
- You can secure the cluster (including the REST Proxy) by using AWS VPC, which should also give you a more stable network.
- Make sure ZooKeeper nodes are using elastic IPs. Kafka brokers can use elastic IPs as well, so long as this doesn't get too costly for you
I hope this helps. Let me know if I can address other specific questions.Alex

Hi all,We are seeking to implement an enterprise Data Streaming Pipeline using the Confluent Platform. We're wondering how others have deployed and are using Kafka in production in an AWS environment? Is there a centralized Kafka cluster? If so, how are clients connecting to the cluster and the cluster being secured (pre Kafka 0.9.0/CP 2.0.0)? Is anyone using the REST Proxy in production? If so, how is this being secured?I appreciate any guidance that can be provided.Thanks,Stuart
