Sure, we built it with "bells and whistles": Tools for visualization with native support for ClickHouse, lightweight ETL service, and many other things like backups, monitoring, and logs. We even support ClickHouse over S3 when data could be decoupled from computing to S3, giving a performance of Clickhouse and cost of S3 storage.
Great question! 1. We tried to build a platform covering end-to-end analytics scenarios with core services based on open-source, and Kafka is an essential block in such solutions. 2. Using them on the same platform eliminates things like traffic between accounts and traffic between AZs and solves security concerns. 3. We are also adding things that help integrate each of these blocks and help users to start using open-source technologies faster.
