Event Streams on the Standard Plan with Private Endpoints and Topics with Retention

An IBM Cloud Event Streams (Kafka) instance on the standard multi-tenant plan (enterprise is a dedicated cluster and a purchase), with the brokers on private endpoints only (public by name), and topics from a map with partitions, retention in hours and a cleanup policy, a week and three partitions by default. Producer and consumer credentials are a separate resource.

This is the operations reference: version drift, dependants and neighbours. For what the module provisions, its inputs and outputs, and how to buy it, see the catalogue entry.

Provider drift

This artifact declares no Terraform provider requirements, so there is nothing to drift. Provider freshness applies to Terraform and OpenTofu modules.

What depends on this

No reference architecture names this module, so changing it affects only configurations that reference it directly.

Nearest alternatives

Nothing else in the catalogue covers messaging & streaming on IBM Cloud. If this module is not the right shape, the closest options are on other clouds.

The same job on other clouds

Messaging & Pub/Sub on other providers. Useful when the cloud is still open, or when you are pricing a second one. How far a comparison like that can be trusted is covered in comparing clouds.
