Leverage Runtime Data to Govern Kafka and ElastiCache Communication

Surfboards under palm trees promoting Upwinds event on leveraging runtime data to govern Kafka and ElastiCache communication. Bold text displays Kafka & ElastiCache Communication on a gradient blue background.

Dec 18, 2023

We are excited to announce that Upwind has now added enrichment to managed streaming service Kafka and ElastiCache in our context-rich topology map.

This new capability leverages runtime data, allowing you to govern your database network access through the Upwind platform. This builds on top of Upwind’s existing RDS cluster and Google Cloud SQL enrichment, letting you view the specific databases that your resources are communicating with and visualize DNS communication in real-time on the topology map and in connections insights.

Use this new capability to get even more visibility of your Kafka and ElastiCache and receive even deeper insights into your resource communication and behavior.
