#KubeCon is here! If you are attending, don't forget to join one of our #Strimzi and #ApacheKafka on #Kubernetes talks: *️⃣ Strimzi And the Future of Apache Kafka on Kubernetes (Project lightning talk): https://sched.co/1iW8P *️⃣ Strimzi - Data Streaming on Kubernetes with Apache Kafka (Maintainers track): https://sched.co/1hoxd *️⃣ Elastic Data Streaming - Autoscaling Apache Kafka: https://sched.co/1i7oP

The Strimzi operator 0.44.0 release came with a new feature about managing #KafkaConnect connectors' offsets ... read more about that in this blog post by our contributor @KateStanley91 https://lnkd.in/dMSvYuKf

#Strimzi 0.44.0 is out 😍 with many new features and bug fixes. For more info, check out the GitHub release page or our "What's new" video: ➡️ https://lnkd.in/eYraVPjA 🎦 https://lnkd.in/eppUPYcb

#KubeCon + #CloudNativeCon North America in Salt Lake City starts already in 2 weeks. If you are attending, don't forget to check out our talks to learn more about #Strimzi and say "Hi" to our maintainers and contributors. ➡️ Strimzi And the Future of Apache Kafka on Kubernetes (Project lightning talk): https://sched.co/1iW8P ➡️ Strimzi - Data Streaming on Kubernetes with Apache Kafka (Maintainers track): https://sched.co/1hoxd ➡️ Elastic Data Streaming - Autoscaling Apache Kafka: https://sched.co/1i7oP

The new auto-rebalancing on scaling feature is coming in the next release ... watch this preview video to understand how it looks like and how it's going to work! Stay tuned! https://lnkd.in/d8ATEDWH And if you want to know more, please join Jakub Scholz at #KubeConNA ... he is going to have a session on elastic data streaming by autoscaling #ApacheKafka

📣 UPDATE: Kafka on EKS Blueprint now is on KRaft mode 🎉 🙌 ... but it comes with other goodies like using Karpenter v1 to provision compute nodes, and it runs by default on Graviton instances 😎⛰️. No need to rebuild nor compile as the Strimzi operator image has Arm support. How cool is that? 📚 Kafka on EKS Blueprint: https://lnkd.in/dDgpv8RK I was able to update this blueprint as a result of a great collaboration with Ovidiu V. and Vara Bonthu from the DoEKS team, and all the contributions from Jonathan Innis and Jakub Scholz to make Strimzi and Karpenter have a smooth integration. Lastly, if you want a reference of companies running Kafka on EKS, using Karpenter and Graviton, give it a look to the AppsFlyer story: https://lnkd.in/dY_u_cbW ( Alicia Plotnikov Eitav Arditti )

Reminder: If you are in the Utrecht area, join us tomorrow (October 8th) for a meetup about #ApacheKafka and #Strimzi : https://lnkd.in/gwwvxxpg

I'm truly excited to share that Maciej and my session on "Running Apache Kafka at scale on Kubernetes with Strimzi " has been accepted for Kubernetes Community Days (KCD) Denmark 🎉 We will be on stage 21. November at 11:15 CEST presenting a classic case study at scale from a world-wide company running self-managed Apache Kafka at large scale on Kubernetes using Strimzi. Thank you Jinhong , Robert , Thomas and the rest of the organizing team for this opportunity and also thank you to A.P. Moller - Maersk and Tudor for letting us take time to do this 🙌

One of the things we have been working on lately with Paolo Patierno in Strimzi is improved support for auto-scaling of #ApacheKafka clusters. My new recording gives you a sneak peek at what you might expect from it: https://lnkd.in/e9VWk2EP And if you want to learn more about how it works, what have we done to get there, and what are the remaining challenges, you should join my talk at #KubeCon in November: https://sched.co/1i7oP
