141 Confluent Testimonials

"Confluent has been instrumental in the company’s ability to scale. It’s not unusual to have 25 million concurrent users for a live match, and on a daily basis seven to eight terabytes of data come into the platform. According to Disney+ Hotstar, powering so many use cases at this scale was made possible because of the real-time event streaming infrastructure that was built on Confluent Platform and Kafka."

“Handing off the operational responsibility for Kafka to someone was, to King, comparable to leaving your kid at kindergarten for the first time. You really need to trust that other party to take good care of your baby.”

“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 are in the hands of one of the industry’s leading data-in-motion experts.”

"With Confluent Cloud, we can now provide operational data in real time to any team that needs it. This is really powerful and significantly reduces our operational burden."

“Kafka addressed our needs and ensured scalability without creating any barriers. It’s built for massive amounts of data, and the underlying concepts and ideas resonate with us. That’s why we chose Kafka.”

“We moved to Confluent Platform because we needed a platform that was stable and could scale easily, and it has security features that we couldn't find from other platforms."

”Confluent has given us a way to seamlessly handle data streaming—something we couldn’t achieve in two years of using standalone Kafka and various legacy technologies. This, in turn, has allowed us to incorporate microservices into our IT architecture to support each of our three business functions.”

"Confluent is definitely the central pillar of our data infrastructure. All data collection that isn’t an application database is going on our central pipeline through Confluent."

"We needed a real-time event streaming architecture to improve the time to market for new apps and reduce the time it takes to stand up and build new clusters and transform a couple of key use cases. Confluent Platform is really helping us, enabling us to move the data in more flexible and reliable ways."

"We started with pay as you go, and had things up and running in about an hour. Confluent Cloud enabled us to defer the learning curve on running Kafka in-house. We currently don’t have the resources or bandwidth to host and manage clusters ourselves, so instead we have the experts on Kafka doing that for us.”

"With Confluent Cloud we have none of the overhead or worries that come with self-managing. We have a guaranteed 99.95% uptime SLA, access to 24x7 expert Kafka support, and access to the latest Kafka developments."

"Since deployment this year, we've never had any form of downtime with respect to processing millions of requests from our customers."

"We truly think of Confluent Cloud and Kafka as the central nervous system of our business, spanning everything from the customer-facing applications to distribution center operations from a technology perspective."

"Confluent has really been an accelerant to the work that my team does."

“Ultimately it comes down to support. When I call Confluent, I know I’m already going to be talking to a Kafka expert. They don’t have to go find someone. And that matters when minutes or even seconds are on the line for uptime.”
