Improved cluster scaling

Written by Johan Rhodin

CloudKarafka's clusters can now be scaled much easier

We're happy to announce that CloudKarafka's dedicated clusters can now be scaled with additional nodes. The different plans have different RAM, disk, and CPU configurations and with these new plans you get to pick how many nodes should be in your cluster. You can select one, three, five or seven nodes.

Use a slider to select the number of nodes.

You can select the number of nodes when you create the cluster, or add additional nodes when your needs increase. Note: At this time you cannot remove nodes.

Apache Kafka is good at utilizing horizontal scaling. These new cluster scaling options make it even easier to utilize those scaling capabilities.
