KubKaf

KubKaf is a product that gives the possibility to deploy Kafka on the cloud in 1 click. The capability to provide Kafka as a Service in a distributed and fault-tolerant manner is the very essence of the solution. The client came to us with a mere idea to develop from scratch a new, state-of-the-art solution, namely, a SaaS platform that would help its users, despite their technical skills, with Kafka deployment and maintenance processes and enable a simplified way of cluster creation without any deep configuration.

Considering all set requirements, our team managed to create a highly efficient fault-tolerant solution that simplifies the development process of streaming reactive and message-driven applications due to the properties of Kafka as a good message broker, event/action storage. Moreover, the capabilities of Scala technologies helped us create a highly resilient product and implement a set of microservices that allowed solving a number of challenges related to cluster, user, profile, and account management. 

As a result, the developed platform helps companies save money significantly because the creation of Kafka clusters no longer requires DevOps specialists. Instead, it can be easily performed by developers who don’t have corresponding expertise in Kafka. The tool also accelerates cluster creation four times compared to inefficient, manual activity.
