Switch classic Kafka topics to diskless topics (early availability)

You can now switch an existing classic topic in Aiven for Apache Kafka® to a diskless topic without copying data or renaming the topic.

The topic remains available during the switch. Records written before the switch remain readable from the classic topic log. Records written after the switch are stored in the diskless topic.

Topics can be switched using the Aiven CLI or Aiven API. This feature is in early availability and is not enabled by default. To request access, contact your account team.
