"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."

“Confluent is critical for how Vimeo instruments our product and how we make that information available across a multitude of different surface areas. Whether data is fed back into the product or into a pipeline for ML and AI teams, or the product team’s self-service tools to better understand how our customers are experiencing the product. There are always opportunities for improvement, where analysts and data scientists can curate, measure, identify usage patterns on the user journey.”

"Using Kafka and Confluent, Walmart has initiated a digital transformation and modern omnichannel experience that allows customers to interact with Walmart.com seamlessly, order groceries online or in a mobile app, and either pick them up or have them delivered. Walmart’s investment in event streaming with Confluent has contributed to business innovation as well as company growth in the public market."

"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."

"With our Kafka-backed data pipeline, we are able to support our partners, who every year create more services, more features, more data instrumentation, and even more granular data than the year before."

"Running Kafka ourselves was a bit of a no-go given our team size and requirements. As a team we decided we wanted to focus on the technical functions of the platform. We wanted to spend more energy on these functionalities, and leave other things to Confluent who can do it better!"

“Kafka scales way better than most other data-exchange platforms, as it doesn’t use HTTP for data exchange and offers blazingly fast throughput out-of-the-box.”

"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."

"With KSQL we can offer our enterprise customers and third-party service providers an accessible tool that lets anyone write simple SQL queries in order to prepare the data themselves, without getting engineers or developers involved, helping them achieve shorter time-to-market while also supporting more adaptive data models."

"Using KSQL and Kafka Streams we have the ability to prepare data in complex structured formats for synching to external systems. We’ve also created a Kafka Streams app that continuously compares the desired and actual state of the data in those systems, and computes an optimal set of API calls needed to perform an update. As a result, we’ve reduced the stress on those external systems by up to 90%, increasing scalability and reliability."

"Confluent Cloud is the core infrastructure that is enabling us to realize our vision of having a single, always-up-to-date view of customer data and our vision of real-time self-optimizing journeys, which will maximize uplift by identifying the optimal campaign for each customer."

"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."

"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."

"At MPL we are committed to offering the best-in-class security and gameplay experience for our users and we are cognisant of the fact that critical data insights along with our existing security protocols is going to further strengthen our platform. Confluent has helped us access real-time data to make informed decisions and stamp out issues before they become problems."

"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.”
