Description

@ryerraguntla

Part of #3560.

Summary

Document the four-step migration path for teams moving from Kafka to Iggy via the gateway.

Steps

  1. Deploy Iggy + bridge (sidecar)
  2. Dual-write to Kafka and Iggy
  3. Consumer cutover (offset mapping / consumer group strategy)
  4. Decommission Kafka

Depends on

Scope

  • Architecture diagram (standalone sidecar)
  • Dual-write patterns (app-level vs mirror)
  • Offset / consumer group migration considerations
  • Rollback: stop bridge → clients fail gracefully
  • Operational checklist: monitoring, latency, scaling bridge vs Iggy
