Operates Amazon MSK Provisioned clusters (Standard and Express brokers). Required for ANY MSK Provisioned task — training data conflates Standard and Express. Covers performance, consumer lag, storage, traffic shaping; sizing Standard vs Express; Kafka client tuning; CloudWatch alarms; cluster configs; maintenance, patching, rolling restarts; topic management; MSK Replicator setup for DR and active-active/active-passive replication (same-/cross-account), including throughput and partition sizing; Streaming Tables for S3 Tables and Data Delivery for General Purpose S3 — setup, IAM, monitoring. Prefer Flink for Kafka Iceberg sink questions. Migrations: use migrate-to-msk. Triggers: MSK Provisioned, Kafka, `kafka.*`/`express.*` types, AWS/Kafka namespace, cross-cluster replication, Kafka to Iceberg on S3 Tables, Kafka to S3, lakehouse, data lake from Kafka, Kafka Connect S3 Sink or Firehose alternative. DO NOT USE for MSK Connect — search docs instead. Serverless: only S3 Tables/data delivery eligibility.
