"At Dropbox, Kafka clusters are managed by the Jetstream team, whose primary responsibility is to provide high quality Kafka services. "
And this is why AWS's "Managed Kafka" service has a place.
I get why Dropbox moved off S3 - storage is their core competency and they thought they could/should do better/cheaper. But I'm surprised they would be wasting valuable dev time with this kind of overhead.
