Review about Amazon Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka (Amazon MSK)

What do you like best?

This is a fully managed service that enables to built and run of an application & to process streaming data, the best feature of this application is it's AWS CLI which is the best one, I can use the AWS Command-line interface or the APIs in the SDK to create or delete an Amazon MSK cluster. THIS IS THE BEST ONE.

What do you dislike?

zookeeper-nodes is an open-source some times disturb too much so I dislike this and also following limits in these features are not good

1-Up to 90 brokers per account and 30 brokers per cluster

2- a minimum of 1 GiB of storage per broker

3-Up to 100 configurations per account

4-A maximum of 16384 GiB of storage per broker

these features are limited, if you need high than this you must make a request & wait for approval, it could take time to approve, this feature can be solved
