The Kafka Operations Platform
Unify Kafka streaming with a proxy layer. Ship faster with developer tooling, self-service, and built-in governance.
From Topics to Data Products
Your company already streams a lot of data, but raw topics don't ship products. Developers need velocity and platform teams need rules. When both are in place, teams can delegate ownership, self-serve, and turn streams into something your organization can trust.

That's where Console and Gateway come in. Use one or both to transform your Kafka operations.
Conduktor Console
Give developers and platform engineers a stable, guided way to build and run streaming apps at scale.
Enterprise UI to manage hundreds of clusters. Topics, schemas, connectors, producers, and consumers across Confluent, AWS MSK, Redpanda, or self-managed.
Browse, filter, and replay messages in real-time. Troubleshoot and auto-decode Avro, Protobuf, and JSON Schema.
Track hot topics, fan-out, dead streams, and consumer lag. Alerts to Slack, PagerDuty, Prometheus, and webhooks.
SSO (OIDC, SAML, LDAP), granular RBAC, role-based access, PII masking, and audit trails.
Health optimization for partitions, replication, naming, and configs. Cost attribution, data quality, and team accountability.
Terraform provider, REST API, GitOps workflows, and CI/CD integration.

}Conduktor Gateway
Extend Kafka with our Kafka Proxy as a control layer to absorb complexity of your infrastructure.
Centralize identity with OIDC/SAML across all clusters. Route clients transparently without changing application code.
Switch clusters, failover traffic, and inject chaos—all at the proxy layer. Zero client changes required.
Virtual clusters, topic concentration, and aliasing. Isolate teams and workloads on shared infrastructure.
SQL queries on topics, message caching, and large payload offloading. Handle load without over-provisioning.
Config guardrails, rate limiting, and schema validation. Enforce standards before bad data hits Kafka.
Field-level encryption, key management, and partner tenants. Protect data while enabling controlled access.
