Move from Kafka Alert to Business-Readable Protobuf Evidence
See how Infrared360® brings Kafka monitoring context, governed Protobuf record inspection, and controlled troubleshooting together in one operational portal.
In a customized live demo, you can explore how authorized teams locate relevant Kafka records, apply an approved customer-provided .proto definition, inspect supported Protobuf fields, compare business values, and continue the investigation with the context needed to make informed decisions.
Explore the Protobuf Visibility Workflow
Your Infrared360 demo can be tailored around the topics covered throughout The Protobuf Visibility Gap in Kafka Operations series.
Direct .proto Record Inspection
See how Infrared360 can use an approved customer-provided .proto definition to decode supported Kafka records without requiring a Schema Registry connection for the direct inspection workflow.
From Kafka Alert to Record-Level Explanation
Follow the operational path from an alert or anomaly to the affected topic, time window, partition, offset, and selected record. See how decoded fields can add record-level evidence to the monitoring information your team already has.
Governed Visibility for Authorized Teams
Review how groups, roles, delegated administration, and audit trails can help control which operations, support, and risk users are permitted to inspect selected records.
A Workflow That Fits Your Architecture
Discuss how Infrared360’s direct .proto workflow can fit alongside Schema Registry-based processes, mixed Kafka platforms, alternate schema-association strategies, and separately managed Protobuf definitions.
Focused Troubleshooting and Safe Testing
See how teams can compare decoded values with expected business rules, application evidence, and prior events. When further validation is appropriate, explore controlled Protobuf test-record workflows for designated nonproduction environments.
A Demo Built Around Your Kafka Environment
Bring your questions about:
- Kafka distributions and deployment models
- Current Schema Registry usage
- Producer serialization and record framing
- Standalone or customer-managed
.protodefinitions - Topic, partition, offset, and timestamp-based investigations
- Role-based access and audit requirements
- Risk, control, and exception-review workflows
- Nonproduction testing and issue reproduction
- Kafka administration alongside other middleware technologies
We will focus the session on your architecture, operational responsibilities, and the questions your team needs to answer.
What to Expect
- A customized live walkthrough: See the Infrared360 workflows most relevant to your team.
- A practical architecture discussion: Review how direct
.protoinspection may fit into your current Kafka and schema-management environment. - A governed operations perspective: Explore monitoring, administration, inspection, testing, permissions, and auditing as connected operational workflows.
- Time for technical questions: Discuss your current challenges with an Infrared360 Kafka specialist.
- A clear evaluation path: Identify whether representative records and
.protodefinitions should be used in a proof of concept.
Because Protobuf implementations can vary, exact support for complex schemas, imports, message types, and record framing should be confirmed with representative records and definitions during evaluation.
