Apache Kafka Managed Services for Reliable, Production-Ready Streaming
Enhance Apache Kafka deployments with proactive management, performance optimization, and scalable solutions for reliable real-time data streaming.
Apache Kafka Clusters, Reliable and Production-Ready
Apache Kafka is used to build real-time data pipelines and event-driven applications, so systems can publish, store, and process streams of data with high throughput and low latency. Most organisations get Kafka clusters deployed and topics flowing. Fewer keep broker performance tuned, consumer lag under control, and clusters current as the platform itself evolves, most notably the shift from ZooKeeper to KRaft.
Geopits manages the operational layer of Kafka environments, whether self-hosted, on Kubernetes, or on a managed service like MSK or Confluent Cloud. That includes broker tuning, partition strategy, consumer lag monitoring, and KRaft migration support. Our team works alongside yours so Kafka stays reliable and production-ready to run, long after the initial deployment is done

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Apache Kafka used for?
Apache Kafka is used to build real-time data pipelines and event-driven applications that publish, store, and process streams of data. Teams use it for real-time analytics, fraud detection, and connecting microservices.
What does Apache Kafka managed services from Geopits include?
It covers broker tuning, partition strategy, consumer lag monitoring, and KRaft migration support. Everything is monitored continuously through GeoOps.
Do we need to migrate from ZooKeeper to KRaft?
Yes. Apache Kafka ended ZooKeeper support in May 2026, so clusters still running on ZooKeeper are on unsupported infrastructure without security patches. We plan and execute the migration with minimal downtime.
How is Apache Kafka different from Confluent Cloud?
Apache Kafka is the open-source streaming platform itself, while Confluent Cloud is a fully managed commercial service built by Kafka's original creators. Confluent adds managed infrastructure, support, and additional tooling on top of the same core engine.
How does Geopits help control Kafka costs?
We review broker sizing, partition counts, and retention policies to reduce unnecessary infrastructure spend. Clients typically see meaningful savings within the first quarter.
Do you support Kafka on Kubernetes?
Yes. We manage Strimzi-based deployments, including operator configuration, persistent volume design, and rolling upgrades.
Can you fix consumer lag or broker performance issues?
Yes. We diagnose bottlenecks like disk I/O, network congestion, and partition imbalance, and tune brokers and consumers for reliable, low-latency delivery.
What is your SLA for critical Kafka issues?
P1 incidents get a response within 15 minutes, any time of day. Our team is reachable by email, Slack, phone, and ticketing.
