"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."

"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."

"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."

“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.”

“With Confluent’s fully managed data streaming platform, we are able to focus on the business side of things, like governance and the metrics around data. As we are evaluating Confluent’s fully managed data streaming platform, we recognize that it will enable us to focus on the business side of things, like governance and the metrics around data. It will allow us to manage complex cluster failure scenarios by seamlessly migrating traffic to an asynchronous DR cluster.”

“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.”

“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.”

"Confluent Cloud has become the technological success factor for DKV Mobility to drive the transition towards a sustainable future of mobility."

”Data streaming helps us power key use cases—including real-time data warehousing for real-time analytics and adaptive bitrate streaming—where we can use real-time data to make timely decisions and deliver better experiences for our users. Ultimately, it makes us more profitable, so data streaming is extremely critical to our business and has a huge impact.”

“This resulted in several challenges related to broker version upgrades, scaling, and data observability—resulting in unnecessary engineering bandwidth spent on managing the infrastructure versus time spent on working on the product,”

“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.”

“We started using the open source version of Kafka a few years ago, but quickly realised we were coming to the limit of what we could achieve in terms of offering Kafka as a professional service to our product development team. Equally, we lack the sheer number of people to make it practical—and that’s where Confluent came in.”

"Working with the Apache Kafka experts at Confluent gives us the confidence to scale the data pipeline, improving business operations and overall reliability."

“We're going up orders of magnitude on the volume of data that we want to transact over Confluent. By having a partner like Confluent, we can start generating value from our network at an unimaginable level today.”
