"Kafka transforms even the most basic of initiatives. Adoption of Kafka at RBC has been massive and organic. Within the first six weeks after our launch of Kafka, we had 37 teams asking to use Kafka for various projects and initiatives."

"We knew we needed to rethink how we processed our data. With Confluent, we’ve got a usage-based data streaming platform where we can develop features, expand into new markets, and create seamless customer experiences based on real-time data."

“Confluent provides exactly what we dreamed of: an ecosystem of tools to source and sink data from data streams. It's provided us not only with great data pipeline agility and flexibility but also a highly simplified infrastructure thats allowed us to reduce costs.”

“With Confluent, we’ve been able to optimize our in-house Kafka-support resources by ~50% and redeploy our engineering and development talent to creating innovative and value-added features for our customers instead. Additionally, engaging Confluent gave us the peace of mind that comes with minimizing downtime and knowing that our Kafka systems …

“We can reflect station configuration changes in less than a second. It gives our customers peace of mind, and real-time data eliminates any guesswork.”

“Everything we do is in real time because batch processing is an old way of thinking. The longer your data waits, the less value it has. So, as data comes through, you need to be able to act on it, or enrich it quickly. Confluent enables this for us.”

“The expectation these days is that banks should always be available. Customers constantly want real-time experiences. One of the best ways to facilitate that is by leveraging a platform like Confluent.”

“Confluent Cloud stands out for its focus on security, especially in highly regulated industries such as banking and healthcare.”

"It’s amazing how much more we can get done when we don’t have to worry about exactly how to do things. We can trust Confluent to offer a secure and rock-solid Kafka platform with a myriad of value-add capabilities like security, connectors, and stream governance on top."

"With Kafka, we can liberate data from our heritage systems and combine it with real-time signals from our customers to deliver a hyper-personalized experience. For example, if our clickstream data shows a customer lingering over a product they looked at in the past, we can push a voucher to them …

"The developers saw the value in Confluent once we had Confluent engineers come in to review our designs. They saved us from making a lot of mistakes early on and helped us eliminate many bottlenecks.”

"We never use the excuse that ‘we’re learning’ to lessen our customers’ expectations of our digital services. Confluent expertise and Confluent Platform capabilities are helping us shorten the learning curve as Kafka takes on a larger role in our modern software architecture.”

"This solution uses multiple features of Confluent Platform. We structure the data from our Cassandra databases using a model stored in Schema Registry, and we use Confluent Replicator to replicate topics across multiple datacenters."

"A key advantage of Confluent Cloud in delivering AutoExtract is time to market. We didn’t have to set up a Kafka cluster ourselves or wait for our infrastructure team to do it for us. With Confluent Cloud we quickly had a state-of-the-art Kafka cluster up and running perfectly smoothly. And …

“With Confluent, we’ve achieved even more than what we’d hoped for just by being able to organize our information and make it flow without interruption. That was something mind-blowing for us, because our reality before was just the opposite—everything was difficult and manual and everything eventually broke. So we’ve gained …
