Brooklin Mirror Maker (BMM) was created by LinkedIn to address limitations in Kafka Mirror Maker (KMM) for mirroring data between data centers at large scale. BMM is built on LinkedIn's stream ingestion service called Brooklin which provides better operability, fault isolation, and performance optimizations compared to KMM. BMM uses REST APIs for dynamic management and diagnostics of mirroring pipelines. It also includes features like flushless produce and passthrough compression to improve performance. LinkedIn has fully replaced KMM with BMM and plans to open source BMM in the future.
