Axual
Axual: the enterprise Kafka platform for organizations that need control over their data streaming Axual helps enterprises run Apache Kafka as a governed, self-service platform, without building and maintaining that layer themselves.

Development teams get the autonomy to create topics, connect applications and ship streaming use cases without waiting on a central bottleneck.
