"One of the main benefits Confluent Cloud has provided is being able to make the changes we want to make quickly and easily by creating a more seamless backend experience."
"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.”
“Risk Focus’s expert knowledge of trading systems complemented Confluent’s expertise with Kafka-based architectures to successfully redesign this mission-critical system. Risk Focus’s attention to detail, combined with its iterative approach to software development, ensured that the client’s business needs would be met by the new streaming platform.”
"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."
"One of the things we did right on this project was work with Confluent early on."
"Fans care about what seats are still available, how much do they cost, and what packages they can get with the tickets. And the venue wants to know who’s buying the tickets, are we having problems converting people, do we need to change the offering, or do we need to put another tour date on the calendar because this one is super popular. These are all different ways of looking at the same data. So we put all of this into an inventory stream which gets placed in a different data store for the various uses of that data. Confluent and Kafka have allowed us to get to the position where it’s now fairly low-friction for the data science team to roll out new capabilities with our data."
"In addition to providing the performance, scalability, and resiliency that we require for this critical piece of our architecture, Confluent provides the expertise and operational support that lets us focus on building features that are going to help our customers sell more vehicles."
"As we continue to break key functionality out of our monolith, we are opening up new possibilities for application components to integrate with other components and third-party applications. This simply would not have been possible for us before the introduction of Confluent Platform."
"Availability of data is crucial, and having a fully managed platform for the data distribution lets us provide solutions to our customers at speed."
"Tracking the number of orders per second using ksqlDB is very crucial to us, so we can monitor the use and health of the platform in real time."
"By capturing events all along the food value chain, processing those events in Confluent Cloud and sharing insights with interested parties throughout the chain, we are not only increasing the value we provide but also making food production as a whole more intelligent and efficient."
"It was a massive project, and a highly reliable message brokering infrastructure that could scale just by adding more nodes as our business needs changed was key to the entire effort."
"When we started, Kafka was a new technology to us, and one that we had decided to use for a very critical application in our system. With Confluent we felt supported in our decision and we knew we had the right level of expertise to get prepared and to help if we encountered any issues. That was a key element in our success."
"We have been very satisfied with Confluent Platform as the backbone of our persistence engine. The platform has been super reliable. We have stringent requirements for real-time performance and reliability, and we have confirmed – from proof-of-concept to deployment of a cutting-edge production trading platform – that we made the right decision."
“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.”
