Performance tunning using MSK with IAM authentication

[mfelipe]

Hi all!

I wanted to ask if anyone using MSK with IAM authentication could share any configuration, tunning strategy or client architecture to handle big producer throughputs (~1k messages or more per sec) with acceptable latency.

"Acceptable latency" is subjective, but I want to be able to avoid bottlenecking (e.g. 1k messages per minute must take less than a minute).

I've specified MSK with IAM because there are some connection restrictions: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/msk/latest/developerguide/limits.html

Thanks!
