STREAMING DATA PIPELINES

Stream to Your Cloud Databases
to Build with Real-Time Data

Organizations and applications increasingly require access to data spread across multiple databases in real time. Confluent helps youbuild streaming data pipelines that connect, process, and govern business-critical data across all your databases, wherever they are.
Build with real-time data while reducing total cost of ownership (TCO) and time to value (TTV).

Power real-time apps
with data streamingat scale

Provide self-service
access to curateddata streams

Empower application teams
to build using consistent, upto-date, and enriched viewsof data from their cloud
database of choice.

Allow teams to discover,understand, and share data
streams in real time as soon
as new information becomes
available.

Decrease risk andcost of modernization
Adopt an incremental
migration strategy andeliminate the risk of
downtime or data loss.

Reduce the TCO of
hybrid and multiclouddata pipelines
Leverage pre-built
connectors and a fully
managed streaming
platform for greater agility
at a lower TCO.

Amid unprecedented volumes of data being generated, organizations need to harness data from heterogeneous systems for realtime insights into how their business is performing, to make timely operational decisions in response to market conditions, and tobuild innovative modern applications that deliver personalized, engaging customer experiences. However, in a modern enterprise,
decentralized tech has unintentionally created distributed islands of data estates and locked away the business value of data intechnology silos.

Confluent as your streaming pipeline to cloud databases
To unlock the full potential of data in real time, organizations need a modern, cloud-native database strategy centered around streaming
data. Industry leaders like Instacart and SecurityScorecard have turned to Confluent to simplify, scale, and modernize real-time data
streaming to cloud databases.
Confluent helps enterprises continuously collect and curate changing data from heterogeneous sources, on-premises and in the cloud, andstream it in real time to cloud-native databases such as MongoDB, Azure Cosmos DB and others so that every system and application has aconsistent, up-to-date, and enhanced view of the data at all times.
From APIs to drag-and-drop UI, pre-built connectors, change data capture (CDC), and continuous SQL-based processing, Confluent
simplifies streaming pipelines to cloud databases. Empower your developers to build innovative real-time applications faster, and IT teams
to confidently pave a path to cloud migration and transformation.
