Why Confluent VS. MSK

Data in Motion is a key requirement for the modern data stack that enables organizations to connect, process, and react to their data streams to power applications and operations across their business in real time. Founded by the original creators of Apache Kafka®, Confluent has harnessed the power of the cloud to build a data streaming platform that’s 10x better than Apache Kafka, helping customers reach 10x the elasticity, storage, and resiliency benefits vs. Open Source Kafka. 

AWS has taken Open Source Kafka and hosted it in their cloud to offer two different products: AWS MSK and MSK Serverless.
