You can now create provisioned Amazon Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka (Amazon MSK) clusters with Express brokers in Africa (Cape Town) and Asia Pacific (Taipei) regions.
Express brokers are a new broker type for Amazon MSK Provisioned designed to deliver up to 3x more throughput per broker, scale up to 20x faster, and reduce recovery time by 90% as compared to standard Apache Kafka brokers. Express brokers come pre-configured with Kafka best practices by default, support all Kafka APIs, and provide the same low-latency performance that Amazon MSK customers expect, so they can continue using existing client applications without any changes.
To get started, create a new cluster with Express brokers through the Amazon MSK console or the Amazon CLI and read our Amazon MSK Developer Guide for more information.
