Where Amazon MSK stands against these 3
Amazon MSK's own sourced figures, placed among the alternatives above that document the same thing in the same unit. A rank here is one criterion, not a verdict; the iScore above weighs all of them.
- Partition limit
- 2,400 partition leaders per Serverless cluster for non-compacted topics, and 120 for compacted ones3rd highest of the 3 that document it. Highest: Redpanda — 5,000 partitions on Serverless, 112,500 on Bring Your Own Cloud.
A rank whose 80% interval overlaps its neighbour's is an ordering, not a finding; the intervals are on each provider's page and in /scores.json.
