Gateway
Conduktor Gateway is deployed between your client applications and existing Kafka clusters. As it’s Kafka protocol compliant, there are minimal adjustments required for clients other than pointing to a new bootstrap server.

- Set granular RBAC controls.
- Leverage multi-tenancy.
- Empower development teams with self-service governance.
