Apache Kafka sumber terbuka merupakan titik awal yang umum untuk kasus penggunaan berskala besar dengan latensi rendah. Platform Data Streaming Confluent membuka potensi terbaik Kafka untuk membangun aplikasi real-time dan arsitektur berbasis peristiwa dengan kemudahan penggunaan dan keandalan yang tak tertandingi.
Berikut adalah perbedaan utama antara Confluent dan Kafka, serta perbandingan fitur yang lengkap - termasuk skalabilitas, ketahanan, keamanan, dan kualitas data.
Apache Kafka is the industry standard for organizations that are looking to become more data-driven and solve complex data streaming challenges. Real-time analytics, fraud detection, AI enablement—data streaming use cases are nearly endless. While the open source project is highly flexible, using it on its own can present a number of challenges and hidden costs.
When an organization chooses to self-manage open source Kafka, it chooses to take on the responsibilities of balancing clusters, monitoring brokers, and managing software upgrades. Additionally, it will need to solve many of the same problems that Confluent has already solved through millions of hours of focused expertise. Confluent's powerful data streaming platform can elevate any Kafka implementation to ensure that data in motion is more reliable, available and secure.
Let’s compare what you get from a self-managed Kafka solution with the added value provided by Confluent's data streaming platform.
| A Self-managed Kafka Platform | Confluent Data Streaming Platform | |
|---|---|---|
| Operational Overhead | Client-server architecture Requires manual cluster management |
Deploy in any environment:
|
| Scalability | Manually provision, configure, and scale Kafka clusters based on expected load | Autoscale clusters up and down from 0 to GBps without over-provisioning infrastructure or introducing risk of an outage Optimize consumption while only paying for what you use |
| Security | Access control lists Limited options for authentication |
e2e encryption or bring your own encryption key RBAC, SAML SSO / OAuth 2.0 authentication |
| Reslience | Self-monitoring for service disruptions and unexpected changes to workloads | Global resilience backed by a 99.99% uptime SLA |
| Cost | Infrastructure, operations, and platform development costs are on the business | Reduced TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) of up to 60% |
| Data Streaming Platform | Self-managed integration and processing with Kafka Connect and Kafka Streams Other data management capabilities need to be built or integrated from an assortment of 3rd party solutions |
Comprehensive platform that offers:
|
| Support | In-house expertise and open source community resources | 24x7 customer support from the world’s foremost Kafka experts with 3 million+ support hours Rich partner ecosystem of Cloud Service Providers (CSPs), Managed Service Providers (MSPs), Systems Integrators and ISVs |
| Data Quality | Bronze and Silver layer data | Bronze, Silver and Gold layer data |
