Do I need to rewrite my Flink applications to switch to Ververica?

No. Ververica is 100% Apache Flink API compatible. Your existing code runs unchanged.

Can I still run on AWS with Ververica?

Yes. Ververica offers a Bring-Your-Own-Cloud option allowing deployment directly within your AWS account. Azure, GCP, and on-premises deployment are also available options.

How long does migration from AWS Managed Flink to Ververica take?

Most customers move from AWS Managed Flink to Ververica and reach production within 3 weeks. Since your code does not change, migration is primarily configuration and testing.

What kind of support does Ververica offer?

Ververica was founded by Apache Flink's original creators from the Technical University of Berlin. Enterprise support includes direct access to engineers who built Flink itself.

What are the hidden costs of AWS Managed Flink?

Hidden costs include orchestration overhead (extra KPU per application), egress penalties ($0.09/GB for data transfer), storage fees ($0.10/GB/month), and single-cloud lock-in constraints that limit flexibility.

How much can companies save by switching from AWS Managed Flink to Ververica?

Companies typically see a 43% cost reduction on average. Typical enterprise TCO ranges from $100K-$130K annually for Ververica versus $180K-$240K for AWS Managed Flink.

AWS Managed Service for Apache Flink looks affordable at first glance. The listed price is $0.11 per KPU-hour in US East (N. Virginia). Simple enough.

But that is not your real bill.

Your actual costs include storage fees at $0.10 per GB/month, mandatory orchestration overhead, and data transfer charges that add up fast. Every application you run requires an extra KPU just for AWS to manage it. That is an invisible tax on every workload.

The real surprise comes when you try to leave. Moving just one petabyte of data out of AWS costs around $90,000 in egress fees. Your data becomes hostage to the exit price.

What is really costing you:

Orchestration overhead: Every application needs an extra KPU you do not use
Egress penalties: AWS charges you to access your own data outside their network
Single-cloud lock-in: No leverage to negotiate, no flexibility to optimize

You're locked to AWS

Multi-cloud? Only if you rebuild everything.

The bill scales aggressively

Per KPU. Per GB ingested. Per GB transferred. Per snapshot. Per region. Plus support.

Features lag months behind

Open-source Flink releases new features. AWS gets around to packaging them. Eventually.

Egress fees are brutal.

Want to send data to Snowflake? That'll be $92K 🤯 per PB.

Governance is bolted on.

Not built in. Hope your auditor is patient.

The kicker?

We created Apache Flink. We know exactly how AWS is limiting you.

Same Code. Better Performance. Lower Bill.

Ververica runs your existing Apache Flink applications without changes. Your code stays the same. Your results get better.

The VERA engine processes data up to 2x faster than open-source Apache Flink. Faster processing means fewer resources. Fewer resources means lower costs.

You choose where to run: AWS, Azure, or your own data centers. Multi-cloud deployment gives you options. Options give you negotiating power.

And if you ever want to leave? Go ahead. Ververica is 100% Apache Flink API compatible. There is no proprietary lock-in. Your code is yours.
