“We started wondering, can we offload all of the management of Kafka—and still get all of the benefits of Kafka? That’s when Confluent came into the picture.”

”With Confluent, it was easier for the team to set up, configure, and scale to support the increasing volume and throughput of the source systems we’re generating. This allowed us to build more microservices that are processing and aggregating data to deliver fit-for-purpose topics.”

"Using Confluent’s out-of-the-box tools really helped us to focus on building new things, rather than solving problems in-house that have already been solved for us at scale by Confluent."

“Confluent’s technology continues to provide the opportunity to develop competitively differentiated products for the future and is the technology we’ll take our next steps with.”

"With Confluent, we have a much more flexible architecture that makes it possible for our teams to operate more independently, and that ultimately leads to greater speed across the organization. We’re removing technology barriers and getting data to the teams that need it faster, and that’s enabling us to take …

“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.”

"In our mixed world of Java and .NET server side code, Confluent has emerged as a key technical partner for Surescripts in support of our Kafka technology."

“When it comes to batch processing versus stream processing, both of them work. But one is a much more efficient way of doing it. A lot of the cost savings over the last twelve months has come from moving into a more efficient way of developing applications with stream processing.”

“We looked at building our own architecture, but we’d much rather consume services than build our own complex Kafka infrastructure. And you [Confluent] invented Kafka, so obviously we just went with that.”

“We relied on batch processes to roll all this data up to a data warehouse, but those processes were taking longer and longer to complete. If they failed and had to be restarted, we were at risk of clients not seeing up-to-date data when they logged in and the entire …

“And, the regular check-up calls we have with Confluent help us to keep moving forward and ensure we never stay stuck on some technical issue.”

“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 and Google Cloud enabled us to address our large database footprint and retire our legacy data platform, which was in many ways our Achilles heel. After moving to real-time streaming on a cloud-based modern architecture, we can now deliver new features and capabilities to our customers and know that …

“We are excited to continue using Confluent to scale our infrastructure and build even more real-time capabilities. As we expand, we know that Confluent will be key to supporting our growth and enabling us to remain at the cutting edge of the cryptocurrency industry.”
