Your questions answered
What is Kafka MirrorMaker?
Kafka MirrorMaker provides high availability for a Kafka cluster by replicating data to another Kafka target cluster.
Why use Kafka MirrorMaker?
This solution is ideal for meeting the high resilience requirements of the data processed by a Kafka cluster, since it performs the mirroring in the source Kafka cluster.
What is OVHcloud Managed Kafka MirrorMaker?
Managed Kafka MirrorMaker is associated with the OVHcloud Managed Kafka solution. It is one of the managed services available on our Public Cloud. Its purpose is to save you time, since we take care of your database’s management and administration.
What is the difference between the Essential, Business and Enterprise service options?
Each pack includes different features for various uses. Among other factors, they do not all have the same benefits or the same level of availability.
Can this solution be integrated into a Public Cloud project?
Yes, our service can be used as a resource, or as part of a Public Cloud infrastructure. You can manage it from the OVHcloud Control Panel, the OVHcloud API or the OpenStack API. We also offer managed services for managing relational databases (SQL), such as MySQL and PostgreSQL, and non-relational databases (NoSQL), such as Caching and MongoDB.
Is MirrorMaker open-source?
The use of Apache Kafka, Kafka Connect and MirrorMaker components is governed by the open-source Apache Licence version 2.0. This licence authorises the modification and distribution of the code in open or proprietary form, free or paid, and requires preservation of the copyright notice upon any modification. A copy of the licence must also be provided with the source code.
How does Kafka mirroring work?
MirrorMaker replicates data between your Kafka clusters to guarantee high availability for your data.
The most common case for using mirroring with Kafka MirrorMaker is disaster recovery, by replicating all messages from your Kafka database in a different region to where your primary Kafka cluster is hosted.
Another common use case for mirroring with Kafka MirrorMaker is the adoption of cloud computing. Some customers who use on-premise Apache Kafka can perfectly replicate their data with a cloud provider through MirrorMaker, in addition to preparing for its migration to the cloud.
MirrorMaker helps global organisations replicate data easily for processing purposes. The virtual machines or instances dedicated to processing this data can be strategically placed near users and distributed across different locations. As a result, Kafka MirrorMaker lowers latency to deliver optimal performance.
