The text outlines a process for deploying Apache Kafka using Confluent and AWS Snowball to manage data in remote areas lacking internet connectivity. Traditionally, transferring large volumes of data from such isolated sites has been challenging, but by using the Confluent Platform in conjunction with AWS Snowball Edge, data can now be uploaded to the cloud and utilized for informed decision-making. The setup involves creating a Confluent Platform image, deploying connectors like the S3 Source Connector on AWS Fargate for serverless operations, and using AWS Snowball devices to transport data to designated S3 buckets. This hybrid approach allows for data processing at the edge or in the cloud, offering flexibility and cost optimization. Additionally, the blog highlights the availability of Confluent Platform 7.7, which includes enhanced security features and new integrations, and discusses using OpenSearch Ingestion to integrate Confluent with Amazon OpenSearch.
