Having a kafka compatible API and S3 storage would be something I would jump to, the savings over MSK would be huge.
If you had a (paid for) API that sat on top of an S3 API for on-prem, that would be fantastic as well.
Kafka is great, but the whole Java ecosystem and the lack of control of what is in the topics and the stuff about co-ordinating the cluster in zookeeper is a management PITA.
