What are some alternatives to KafkaHQ?

• Kafka Manager(kafka-manager)

This interface makes it easier to identify topics which are unevenly distributed across the cluster or have partition leaders unevenly distributed across the cluster. It supports management of multiple clusters, preferred replica election, replica re-assignment, and topic creation. It is also great for getting a quick bird’s eye view of the cluster.

• rdkafka(librdkafka for C library, rdkafka for PHP, rdkafka for node)

This gem is a modern Kafka client library for Ruby based on librdkafka. It wraps the production-ready C client using the ffi gem and targets Kafka 1.0+ and Ruby 2.3+.

• DoctorKafka(Doctorkafka)

DoctorKafka can automatically detect broker failure and reassign the workload on the failed nodes to other nodes. DoctorKafka can also perform load balancing based on topic partition's network usage, and makes sure that broker network usage does not exceed the defined settings.
