The Problems Nobody Warns You About
If you're running Kafka on AWS, chances are you're using Amazon MSK. It solves infrastructure. But what happens next?
As your Kafka usage grows, new challenges emerge — not at the infrastructure level, but above it:
- Cross-account connectivity that breaks in unexpected ways
- Authentication gaps (OIDC, mTLS) that slow teams down
- Scaling inefficiencies across clusters and environments
This webinar dives into the real-world problems teams face when operating Kafka on MSK, and how to solve them.
What You'll Learn
- Why cross-account MSK connectivity is harder than it looks
- The hidden limitations of Kafka networking and how they impact your architecture
- How to support modern authentication (OIDC, mTLS) in MSK environments
- Ways to reduce cluster sprawl and improve efficiency
- How to introduce centralized control without changing your applications
Who This Is For
- Platform engineers running Kafka infrastructure on AWS
- SRE and infrastructure teams supporting MSK workloads
- Architects responsible for Kafka governance and reliability
- Anyone scaling Kafka across multiple accounts or environments
