“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 a marvelous tool to solve our problems and we’re now trying to demonstrate the power and value of Confluent to other teams in our organization.”
"You have real-time data: stock prices, things that are ticking. You have data that's pretty static: terms and conditions, things like that. And then you have data that's updating periodically: things like position updates. If you can use a tool like Kafka to pull all that data together and combine it in ways that you display to end users—whether they be traders, salespeople, managers—and you provide them analytics across that data, it's extremely powerful."
"With the ability to combine real-time results with historical events, Confluent is leading the charge in helping enterprises discover new services and modernize existing ones with the power of event streaming."
"With Confluent and Apache Kafka, we have quick access to the varying types of data allows us to move faster as a development team and allows us to respond more quickly to our users."
“With Confluent, we have a data streaming platform that’s been quick to set up, where configuration is automated, and with zero maintenance tasks so we can focus on processing logic.”
"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."
"BHG is a fast moving company, and Confluent is quickly becoming not only a central highway for our data with their vast connector portfolio, but also a streaming transformation engine as well for a vast number of use cases. Confluent is at the core of everything we're doing right now. It's playing a key role in our ability to scale and enabling our product teams to come up with new and original products."
"With the support we received from Confluent and our cloud provider, moving our on-prem Kafka deployment to Confluent Cloud went well, as did the overall cloud migration."
“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.”
“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.”
"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."
"Our vision for our data strategy is to use data effectively and efficiently across the organization to deliver value for our business and for our customers. We’re using Confluent to leverage data to create business value and help SumUp become a more data-driven company."
"There isn’t another product that competes with Confluent Platform. Streaming data as events enables completely new ways for solving problems at scale."
"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."
