In terms of configuring the product, specifically Confluent, understanding the design and configuring values for various parameters is something only I am familiar with. The initial setup, including the initial Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) and progress in implementation, is quite difficult. We primarily use on-premises Kafka for high-transaction scenarios. If something crashes there, we handle data processing manually. It might not be the most efficient, but we haven't considered it a major concern. For other use cases, we also prefer on-premises. The implementation took us one year. It involved configuring the platform over a year. The time required for configuring or implementing use cases varies; some take longer, while others might also take up to a year.
