HAQM Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka (HAQM MSK) now supports Apache Kafka version 2.7.0 for new and existing clusters. Apache Kafka 2.7.0 includes several bug fixes and new features that improve performance. Some key features include the ability to throttle create topic, create partition, and delete topic operations (KIP-599) and configurable TCP connection timeout (KIP-601). For a complete list of improvements and bug fixes, see the Apache Kafka release notes for 2.7.0.
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.
Support for Apache Kafka version 2.7.0 is offered in all AWS regions where HAQM MSK is available.
