Kora: A Cloud-Native Event Streaming Platform for Kafka
Event streaming is an increasingly critical infrastructure service used in many industries and there is growing demand for cloud-native solutions. Confluent Cloud provides a massive scale event streaming platform built on top of Apache Kafka with tens of thousands of clusters running in 70+ regions across AWS, Google Cloud, and Azure. This paper introduces Kora , the cloud-native platform for Apache Kafka at the core of Confluent Cloud. We describe Kora's design that enables it to meet its cloud-native goals, such as reliability, elasticity, and cost efficiency. We discuss Kora's abstractions which allow users to think in terms of their workload requirements and not the underlying infrastructure, and we discuss how Kora is designed to provide consistent, predictable performance across cloud environments with diverse capabilities.
期刊介绍:
The Proceedings of the VLDB (PVLDB) welcomes original research papers on a broad range of research topics related to all aspects of data management, where systems issues play a significant role, such as data management system technology and information management infrastructures, including their very large scale of experimentation, novel architectures, and demanding applications as well as their underpinning theory. The scope of a submission for PVLDB is also described by the subject areas given below. Moreover, the scope of PVLDB is restricted to scientific areas that are covered by the combined expertise on the submission’s topic of the journal’s editorial board. Finally, the submission’s contributions should build on work already published in data management outlets, e.g., PVLDB, VLDBJ, ACM SIGMOD, IEEE ICDE, EDBT, ACM TODS, IEEE TKDE, and go beyond a syntactic citation.
