You can now connect your Apache Kafka applications to HAQM Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka (HAQM MSK) in the Europe (Milan) AWS Region. HAQM MSK clusters in Milan can be created using kafka.t3.small brokers or brokers from the kafka.m5 family.
It’s easy to migrate your data to HAQM MSK using open source tools like Apache MirrorMaker and replicate ongoing changes from supported sources using AWS Database Migration Service.
HAQM MSK is a fully managed service for Apache Kafka that makes it easy for you to build and run applications that use Apache Kafka as a data store. HAQM MSK is 100% compatible with Apache Kafka, which enables you to quickly migrate your existing Apache Kafka workloads to HAQM MSK with confidence or build new ones from scratch. With HAQM MSK, you spend more time innovating on applications and less time managing clusters. To learn how to get started, see the HAQM MSK Developer Guide.
For HAQM MSK region availability, refer to the AWS Region Table.
