"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."
"With Confluent Platform we’re making data available via event streams, which means integration between systems is now a much lighter lift. A project that would take three months if we were working on the integration from both sides, will take significantly less time and effort because we only need to develop and test the consumer side.”
"Confluent Platform and Apache Kafka, by enabling us to build and deploy real-time event-driven systems for credit scoring, have helped BRI become the most profitable bank in Indonesia."
"Real-time inventory accuracy is just the foundation for much more than just inventory management; it enables retailers to improve post sales and supply chain processes as well as customer engagement and the customer experience. And beyond retail, the real-time asset tracking and supply chain management solutions we’ve built with Kafka and Confluent Cloud are opening opportunities across a wide range of industries including manufacturing, energy and healthcare."
"The level of credibility that Confluent has built in terms of modern, scalable and flexible stream processing does much of our blocking and tackling for us."
"In terms of hard costs, Confluent reduced our bottom line from the infrastructure cost perspective, reducing licensing and physical hardware. We reduced our projected yearly cost by 69%. And the months of planning we would have to put into meetings and seasonal projections are gone, so our management oversight is reduced from a soft-cost perspective."
"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 advantage of new opportunities and implement new experiences that will help our IBOs and customers."
“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.”
"Confluent Platform is not just about moving data, it’s about reliable, low-latency data delivery. Without it, near-real-time execution of machine learning models would not be possible for us."
"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.”
"To provide accurate and current data across the Trimble Platform, it requires streaming data pipelines that connect our internal services and data systems across the globe. Custom connectors will allow us to quickly bridge our in-house event service and Kafka without setting up and managing the underlying connector infrastructure. We will be able to easily upload our custom-built connectors to seamlessly stream data into Confluent and shift our focus to higher-value activities."
“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.”
"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."
“We started out managing our own Kafka clusters, but as soon as we got to scale, we realised it would be too inefficient and expensive for us to keep self-managing. Thankfully, with Confluent, we get fully managed products and services that go beyond just infrastructure; they help us scale Kafka, handle upgrades, and solve problems when required.”
"Data streaming is quickly becoming the central nervous system of our infrastructure as it powers real-time customer experiences across our 12 countries of operations. Stream Designer’s low-code, visual interface will enable more developers, across our entire organization, to leverage data in motion. With a unified, end-to-end view of our streaming data pipelines, it will improve our developer productivity by making real-time applications, pipeline development, and troubleshooting much easier."
