The Diskless Advantage

Traditional Kafka was designed for the era of local disks. AutoMQ was re-architected from day one for cloud object storage. This isn't just about eliminating problems—it's about redefining what cloud-native Kafka should be.

	Apache Kafka®	AutoMQ
Cloud-Native Storage Architecture S3 as the single source of truth, no local disk management
No EBS Volume Dependencies Eliminate EBS provisioning, scaling, and monitoring overhead
Intelligent Traffic Orchestration Automatic partition and broker load balancing without manual rebalancing
Balanced Performance Architecturally eliminate hot spots and disk bottlenecks
Elastic Resource Utilization Pay only for what you use, no capacity reservation for peak loads
Simplified Network Architecture No VPC peering, PrivateLink, NAT gateways, or complex networking setup required
Automated Scaling Operations Built-in auto-scaling without custom scripts, tools, or operators
Elastic Workload Isolation Stream-based architecture enables fine-grained resource isolation
Native Integration Capabilities Built-in data pipelines without deploying separate connector infrastructure

Powering Your Kafka Ecosystem

Go beyond basic Kafka with enterprise‑grade solutions for seamless migration, managed connectors, multi‑cluster resilience, and lakehouse integration—all in one unified platform.

Table Topic

Streaming Lakehouse

Natively integrates Iceberg/Delta Lake table formats to auto-convert Kafka topics into query-ready tables without ETL pipelines.

Managed Connector

Kafka Connector

300+ connectors with 100% compatibility with Kafka upstream and downstream ecosystem.

Kafka Linking

Migration

Zero-downtime migration from any Kafka. Byte-for-byte replication. Rolling cutover. Done.

Multi-Cluster DR

Disaster Recovery

Unified access point for multiple clusters with transparent topic cluster switching through proxy metadata routing for disaster recovery capabilities.

BYOC or Software? Choose Your Experience

Both models guarantee 100% sovereignty by keeping your Data, Metadata (KRaft), and Control Plane entirely within your own VPC.

Recommended for Cloud

AutoMQ BYOC

The "Managed" Solution

Fully automated orchestration for teams that want a managed service experience.

One-Click Cluster Management

Deploy and manage the entire lifecycle via the AutoMQ Cloud Console. No manual provisioning of brokers or infrastructure.

Fully Automated Operations

Enjoy "Set-it-and-Forget-it" Kafka. AutoMQ handles automated scaling, rebalancing, and version patching within your VPC.

Ultimate Privacy (Triple-Plane Isolation)

The Control Plane, Data, and KRaft Metadata all stay inside your VPC. You get SaaS-level automation without ever opening your network to external third parties.

Flexible Cloud Billing

Pay-as-you-go pricing integrated directly with Cloud Marketplace subscriptions (AWS, GCP, Azure, OCI).

AutoMQ Software

The "Integrated" Solution

Leverage your existing DevOps assets and Kubernetes ecosystem.

Preserve Existing Tech Stacks

Built for teams using Strimzi, Helm Charts, or custom K8s Operators. Drop AutoMQ into your existing Kafka deployment workflow without changing a line of code.

Total Architectural Control

Perfect for power users who want to manage their own maintenance windows, resource scheduling, and infrastructure tuning.

Same "Zero-Leak" Security

Just like BYOC, your Data, KRaft Metadata, and Control Plane remain 100% within your security perimeter (Public Cloud or Private IDC).

Flexible Enterprise Billing

Supports Pay-as-you-go + Marketplace (plus a dedicated Support Fee) or Custom Contract options for large-scale enterprise needs.

Why 80% of our public cloud customers choose BYOC:

Because the Data, Metadata, and Control Plane are already isolated in your VPC, BYOC offers the same security as Software but removes the operational burden of managing Strimzi or Helm. It's the fastest path to a production-ready, diskless Kafka.
