Launch an event-streaming stack: managed Kafka with a browser console

Kafka is easy to write to and hard to see into. Standing up a broker is the start of the work, not the end: then you wire CLI tools and shell scripts together just to answer the basics. Which topics exist. How far behind is that consumer group. Is the broker even healthy. The event log you wanted was always one more afternoon of tooling away.

The Launch an event-streaming stack collapses that into one button. You get a managed Apache Kafka cluster with a browser console attached to it, EU-resident, in minutes, with nothing to wire by hand.
