141 Confluent Testimonials

"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 shouldn’t care where the data sits. We should be able to share and move data seamlessly between environments. Streaming is the key. Otherwise you’re copying and shipping data and it’s a moment in time. And our strategy based on what we’re doing with Confluent Kafka is saying ‘the moment is now."

"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 Cloud we quickly had a state-of-the-art Kafka cluster up and running perfectly smoothly. And if we run into any issues, we have experts at Confluent to help us look into them and resolve them. That puts us in a great position as a team and as a company."

"We work with Confluent because it is extremely valuable to have access to experts who know the most about Apache Kafka. It’s that feeling of security that has paid off for us."

"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."

“Although we had some experience running open source Kafka ourselves, we recognized that we needed a trusted partner to help us resolve issues that we’d encounter with a larger-scale deployment. Confluent not only had a local office to provide that support, they also had the best known, verified solution, which was what we wanted for our mission-critical e-commerce platforms.”

"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."

"Confluent enables us to see our data in motion, which was simply impossible with our existing systems... Much like the weather radar that shows how your situation has changed by the minute, seeing our data in motion with Confluent has enabled us to tackle long-standing business challenges, lower costs, and deliver improved customer experiences."

"It was a massive project, and a highly reliable message brokering infrastructure that could scale just by adding more nodes as our business needs changed was key to the entire effort."

"When we started, Kafka was a new technology to us, and one that we had decided to use for a very critical application in our system. With Confluent we felt supported in our decision and we knew we had the right level of expertise to get prepared and to help if we encountered any issues. That was a key element in our success."

"We have been very satisfied with Confluent Platform as the backbone of our persistence engine. The platform has been super reliable. We have stringent requirements for real-time performance and reliability, and we have confirmed – from proof-of-concept to deployment of a cutting-edge production trading platform – that we made the right decision."

"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."

“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.”

“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.”
