HAQM MSK Connect APIs now support AWS PrivateLink
HAQM Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka Connect (HAQM MSK Connect) APIs now come with AWS PrivateLink support, allowing you to invoke HAQM MSK Connect APIs from within your HAQM Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) without traversing the public internet.
By default, all communication between your MSK Clusters and your HAQM MSK Connect connectors is private, and your data never traverses the internet. Similar to AWS PrivateLink support for HAQM MSK APIs, this launch enables clients to invoke MSK Connect APIs via a private endpoint. This allows client applications with strict security requirements to perform MSK Connect specific actions such as creating connectors from new or existing custom plugins, listing and describing connector details, or updating connectors, without the need to communicate over a public connection.
AWS PrivateLink support for HAQM MSK Connect is available in all AWS Regions where HAQM MSK Connect is available. To get started, follow the directions provided in the AWS PrivateLink documentation. To learn more about HAQM MSK Connect, visit the HAQM MSK Connect documentation.
