How it works

What is Aiven for Apache Kafka® Connect?

Extend your Aiven for Apache Kafka with a fully managed Kafka Connect cluster in 2 minutes — directly from our web console or programmatically via our API, CLI, Terraform provider or Kubernetes operator.

30+ managed connectors help you connect to your data sources

Aiven’s documentation makes your connector configuration easy. Check out the full list of Aiven for Apache Kafka® connectors.

Source Connectors

Pull the data from your databases and messaging systems.

Sink Connectors

Send the data to databases, messaging systems, data warehouses and object storages.

Use your own connector with Aiven for Apache Kafka®

If the connector you need is not on our list, you can always create a self-managed Apache Kafka Connect cluster and connect it to Aiven for Apache Kafka.

Pricing plans

Aiven for Apache Kafka® Connect pricing

No additional ingress and egress costs even with intensive networking traffic. No more unpleasant surprises with your network bills. No set limit to your connector deployment — the only limit is your cluster setup, and you can increase or decrease that whenever you choose.
