Kafka Connect - Capabilities and Limitations
Discover the capabilities and limitations of Public Cloud Databases for Kafka Connect
Last updated April 4th, 2022
Objective
This page provides the technical capabilities and limitations of the Public Cloud Databases for Kafka Connect offer.
We continuously improve our offers. You can follow and submit ideas to add to our roadmap at https://github.com/ovh/public-cloud-roadmap/projects/2.
Capabilities and limitations
Supported regions and multi-AZ
The Public Cloud Databases offer is available in the following regions:
BHS(Beauharnois, Canada)DE(Frankfurt, Germany)GRA(Gravelines, France)SBG(Strasbourg, France)UK(London, United Kingdom)WAW(Warsaw, Poland)
Database nodes have to be in the same region. Multi-AZ is currently not supported.
Plans
Three plans are available:
- Essential
- Business
- Enterprise
Here is an overview of the various plans' capabilities:
| Plan | Number of nodes | Additional nodes | Network |
|---|---|---|---|
| Essential | 1 | No | Public only |
| Business | 3 | No | Public and Private |
| Enterprise | 6 | No | Public and Private |
Your choice of plan affects the number of nodes your cluster run, the SLA, and a few other features such as private networking.
Nodes
- Essential: the cluster consists of one node.
- Business: the cluster is delivered with 3 nodes.
- Enterprise: the cluster is delivered with 6 nodes.
Hardware resources
Here are the node types you can choose from:
| Name | Disk (GB) | Cores | Memory (GB) |
|---|---|---|---|
| db1-7 | N/A | 2 | 7 |
| db1-15 | N/A | 4 | 15 |
| db1-30 | N/A | 8 | 30 |
All nodes of a given cluster should be of the same type and distributed in the same region.
Features
Network
Public networking can be used with all the offers.
Private networking (vRack) is available for Business and Enterprise class clusters.
When using private networking, some network ports get created in the private network of your choice. Thus, further operations on that network might suffer from some restrictions - e.g. you won't be able to delete the network if you didn't stop the Public Cloud Databases services first.
Ingress and Egress traffic are included in the service plans and unmetered.
Logs and metrics
Logs and metrics are available via the OVHcloud Public Cloud Control Panel. As of today, you can't export logs and metrics, nor plug them into a remote tool.
- Logs retention: 1000 lines of logs
- Metrics retention: 1 calendar month
Please note that if the cluster is deleted, logs and metrics are also automatically deleted.
