Aiven is great!
Aiven has been a great partner to work with. They've made managing our data infrastructure much easier. The UI makes it easy to see our current metrics and take actions as needed. Highly recommended!

For lower, not production envirments I would like to be able to create smaller configurations to cost optimize. Especially in development where one engineer maybe using the brokers for small tests.

Aiven provided with instances of Redis and kafka which I need to use in my project and using it was very easy compared to other services
Does its job perfectly.
What do you like best about the product?
What distinguishes aiven from other database providers is it's super quick to get a cluster up and running, followed by a generous 300$ coupon so you can tinker around and utilise the platform wholeheartedly. It also gives an option to run upto 25 clusters, so even in a free plan you could power your 25 side projects for free, which the other providers restrict to just one. I sincerely love their service and would continue to be a user for them.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think perhaps they could optimize their cluster closing time. Tho fast, I wish it'd be quicker.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I could create multiple database clusters up and running and power my side projects hassle free.
