At this point, where you are doing KSQL level stuff, isn't it better to just use Kafka, NATS is very appealing for it's simplicity but if I reach a point of re-implementing KSQL or spending 3 hours setting up zookeeper and understanding how to do Kafka distributed for a devops point then Im choosing the latter

Most decent rack servers will have some out of band management to allow this. If that fails then some dude at Equinix rolls over some stone age KVM trolley for you for a few hundred dollars..
