Kafka Mobility Intelligence

Kafka Mobility Intelligence is an enterprise-grade tool designed to simplify and automate the migration of Kafka data, schemas, configurations, and consumer groups across clusters and platforms. Whether you are moving to the cloud, upgrading your Kafka platform, or replicating environments, this suite provides a unified interface to plan, execute, and monitor every aspect of the migration.

Kafka Mobility Intelligence architecture overview

Data Migration

Replicate topics and their data between source and destination Kafka clusters with minimal downtime.

Schema Migration

Migrate Avro, Protobuf, and JSON schemas from one Schema Registry to another, preserving compatibility settings.

Consumer Group Sync

Synchronize consumer group offsets so downstream applications can resume processing without data loss or duplication.

ACL Replication

Replicate Access Control Lists to maintain security policies across clusters.

Multiple Replication Tools

Choose from MirrorMaker 2, Cluster Linking, Confluent Replicator, or WarpStream Orbit depending on your infrastructure.

Audit Trail

Track every action performed within the suite for compliance and troubleshooting.

ScenarioDescription
Cloud MigrationMove from on-premises Kafka to a managed cloud service such as Confluent Cloud or AWS MSK.
Platform UpgradeUpgrade from one Kafka distribution or version to another with minimal disruption.
Environment CloningReplicate a production environment into staging or development for testing purposes.
Vendor MigrationTransition between Kafka vendors while preserving data integrity and consumer state.
Cross Cluster MigrationTransfer workloads between Kafka clusters within the same organization or data center.

This documentation walks you through the full lifecycle of a Kafka migration:

  1. Getting Started: Sign in, activate your license, and familiarize yourself with the interface.
  2. Pre-Migration Setup: Configure Kafka clusters, Connect clusters, and Schema Registries before creating a job.
  3. Migration Planning: Create and review migration plans to organize your work.
  4. Creating Jobs: Step through the job creation wizard, selecting topics, schemas, consumer groups, and ACLs.
  5. Managing Jobs: Start, stop, and manage migration jobs from the dashboard.
  6. Rollback: Reverse a migration if issues arise.
  7. Importing Jobs: Import existing MirrorMaker 2, Replicator, Cluster Linking, or WarpStream jobs.
  8. Monitoring: Track progress, health, and performance of running migrations in real time.
  9. Administration: Manage licenses, users, SSO, and audit logs.
