Kafkawize

Kafkawize is now fully opensource. ? All the features of the Kafkawize are now available at no cost.

Kafkawize is a Self service Apache Kafka Topic Management/Governance tool/portal. It is a web application which automates the process of creating and browsing Kafka topics, acls, avro schemas, connectors by introducing roles/authorizations to users of various teams of an organization.

Withe several downloads every week, many more companies which did not adopt a solution, can happily move away from managing kafka configs in excelsheets and wiki pages.
