Kafka cluster design, sizing, and configuration (self-managed or cloud-managed).

Topic, partition, and retention strategies aligned with your data and compliance needs.

Producers and consumers integrated with your web applications, APIs, and microservices.

Spark Streaming or Structured Streaming jobs for aggregation, enrichment, and analytics.

Schema registry setup and governance for safe data evolution over time.

Connectors to databases, data warehouses, data lakes, and third-party systems.

Monitoring, logging, and alerting dashboards for full observability of the streaming layer.

Disaster recovery, backup, and failover strategies tailored to your risk appetite.

Security hardening: authentication, authorisation, encryption, and network isolation.

Documentation, runbooks, and knowledge transfer to your internal teams.

Optional add-ons and accelerators

Real-time analytics dashboards for business and operations teams.

Event-driven microservices design for new or existing web platforms.

Migration from legacy batch ETL to streaming-first architectures.

On-call support and SLA-based maintenance for production streaming systems.

How we work

A Structured, Fixed-Price Approach to Streaming Projects

Every Kafka & Spark Streaming engagement at Stralya is run like a strategic product, not a technical experiment. We work on a fixed-price, clearly scoped basis whenever possible, so your team knows exactly what will be delivered, when, and under which conditions. For highly specialised needs, we can complement your internal team with senior-only experts.

We start by understanding your business flows, data sources, and latency requirements. Together with your CTO, product, or data teams, we map the events, topics, and consumers that matter: from user activity on your website to back-office operations and external integrations.

We design a target architecture using Kafka, Spark Streaming (or Structured Streaming), and complementary services such as schema registries, connectors, and data sinks. We align this with your chosen cloud provider (AWS, Azure, GCP) and your security and compliance constraints.

Our engineers implement producers, consumers, streaming jobs, and data models with a strong focus on idempotency, back-pressure management, and fault tolerance. We load-test the pipeline, tune configuration, and validate behaviour under realistic Dubai-scale traffic conditions.

We containerise and deploy your streaming components using modern DevOps practices. We implement dashboards, alerts, and runbooks so your teams know exactly how to operate, observe, and troubleshoot the system in production.

Once in production, we can stay as your long-term partner, improving throughput, reducing costs, adding new data products, and supporting new business lines – without compromising on stability or security.

Find Commonly Asked Questions

Kafka & Spark Streaming are ideal for platforms where real-time or near real-time data is critical: high-traffic web marketplaces, real estate portals, logistics and delivery platforms, fintech and trading dashboards, IoT and smart-city systems, and any organisation that needs instant analytics or event-driven automation. If your users or internal teams are waiting for data to refresh, you are likely a strong candidate for streaming.

You do not always need both. Kafka is typically used as the backbone for event streaming and decoupling services, while Spark Streaming is used for complex processing, aggregations, and analytics on top of those streams. In some cases, Kafka plus lightweight stream processors are enough; in others, Spark is essential. During discovery, we recommend the minimal, future-proof stack that fits your use cases and team capacity.

Yes. One of Stralya’s strengths is “project rescue”. We audit your current Kafka clusters, topics, consumer groups, and Spark jobs; identify bottlenecks, misconfigurations, and risks; then stabilise and refactor the architecture. Our goal is to restore confidence in your streaming layer while keeping business disruption to a minimum.

We apply strict engineering standards: replication and partitioning strategies, secure authentication and authorisation, schema management, idempotent producers, consumer lag monitoring, back-pressure handling, and detailed logging and tracing. On the security side, we align with your cloud provider’s best practices, enforce least privilege, and integrate with your existing IAM, VPC, and encryption policies.

Whenever the scope is clear and stable, yes. We prefer fixed-price, outcome-focused engagements where deliverables, timelines, and quality expectations are agreed upfront. For highly exploratory or ongoing internal platform work, we can provide selective senior staff augmentation to strengthen your existing team.
