We live in a dynamic world. It is safe to say that companies aim to speed up time-to-market and out-innovate their competition with Kafka, but at the same time struggle with some limitations. These can range from compliance-related setbacks for regulations such as GDPR, CCPA and HIPAA, to self-service slip-ups that could see a whole Kafka cluster going down. Even something as seemingly innocuous as configuring and creating a Kafka Topic can lead to operational U-turns, slowdowns and even downtime.

WWDC rolled up a few weeks ago and we’ve been hard at work ever since. Here’s what we’ve done so far — enjoy!

Imagine that you’re at your company’s all-hands meeting and one of the sellers is proudly ringing the office gong to celebrate closing a big deal with a client who’s on the other side of the world. It’s a big deal because it’s a major project. Their logo is going to look sleek on your website, and you are finally breaking into a new region of the world. But two months after the project kicks off, the situation isn’t looking as rosy.

Commonly, your website or app functions perfectly until you release it. During testing, you might seem to have control over everything. But, sooner or later, you will face some challenges.

whenever we go to a website, whether it's an online store to buy clothes or to check the status of our bank account, we need to type the URL into the browser. When you click on the relevant page, a request is sent to the server, and the server always responds with the HTTP three-digit code. This HTTP status code tells us if our request was successfully completed or whether there was an error that prevented the server from serving the content that users or visitors were trying to access.
