The Better, Faster Way to Stream Data
Autoscaling. Built-in reliability. Unmatched performance.
Confluent lets you stream smarter (not harder) with next-level data streaming at a fraction of the cost.
Stream Smarter, Scale Faster, Save Bigger
Apache Kafka® provides the scalability, durability, and high throughput required to handle massive volumes of data seamlessly. However, it doesn’t offer everything you need out-of-the-box. Confluent rebuilt Kafka to create Kora, the cloud-native engine that powers advanced features like automated scalability, global availability, service decoupling, and automated operations.
Elastically scale up and down by dynamically increasing and shrinking capacity to handle GBps+ workloads and meet actual demand without overprovisioning
Enable a faster, more resilient service at a competitive price billed only when you use it. No hidden costs, just one price that’s all in – networking, compute, and storage.
Choose the perfect cluster for every stream whether that means fully managed in the cloud, within your VPC, self managed in your environment of choice, or any combination.
Kora simplifies operations, reduces costs, and speeds up time to market so you can stream smarter today, scale faster tomorrow, and innovate for the future—all while keeping costs in check.
Scale Up, Scale Down—No Stress, No Mess
Got peak demands? No sweat. Scale up for GBps workloads, then scale down to zero when it's over—no hassle, no headaches, just serverless magic.
Service Decoupling
Scale networking, compute, and storage independently—so you only use what you need.
Automated Scaling and Data Balancing
Scale automatically, freeing your team from doing capacity planning, load balancing, and network setup.
Self-balancing Clusters
Our enhanced self-balancing feature was re-architected to be more real-time to ensure it reacts swiftly to workload changes.
99.99% Uptime, 100% Peace of Mind
Ensure high availability and offload Kafka operations with 99.99% uptime SLA, multi-AZ clusters, and no-touch Kafka patches
Cluster Linking
Improve availability and reduce downtime with our 99.99% uptime SLA and simplified geo-replication via Cluster Linking
Fully Managed
Offload Kafka maintenance to a fully managed service that deploys, upgrades, and recovers Kafka out-of-the-box
Automatic Monitoring
Ensure resiliency by detecting infrastructure degradations or network failures with automatic monitoring and mitigation
Health Checks
Improve resiliency by automating fault detection and other operations so even small teams can do big things
Your Streams, Your Clusters, Your Way
Different streams demand different infrastructure. Whether in the cloud, on-prem, or your VPC, there’s a Kafka option for every need—cost-effective, resilient, and built for any workload.
Cluster Types
Optimize your environment with cost-effective clusters—Basic, Standard, Enterprise, Freight, and Dedicated—or Bring Your Own Cloud with Warpstream, based on your latency and throughput needs.
Deployment Flexibility
Deploy Kafka wherever you need it—on-prem, in the cloud, across multi-cloud, hybrid, or your VPC—without ever compromising performance.
Private Networking
Provide enhanced security by isolating traffic and ensuring secure, encrypted connections across your data infrastructure.
“As we work with new customers, we don't know how many data flows are in each second so we have to be ready for anything. With Confluent Cloud, auto scaling clusters easily without having to push the buttons and make changes alleviates work on our end and makes it easy”
“Since we built Horus, our global IPv4 scanning platform, on top of Confluent, we've saved over a million dollars compared to open source Kafka or MSK. Business resilience and ensuring no disruption to delivering customer value, all of that is enabled by having a system like Confluent that works securely and reliably to do data streaming.”
"With Confluent Cloud, we no longer have to chase downtime brokers, spin them back up and see how to recover them. We see much less unbalanced partitions and don't have to think about all kinds of edge cases with the brokers that we used to handle in the past. So I have to say that the resiliency of our infrastructure system has really improved with Confluent."
„Confluent Cloud hat es uns ermöglicht, unseren straffen Zeitplan für unseren Launch mit begrenzten Ressourcen einzuhalten. Durch das Event-Streaming als Managed Service hatten wir keine weiteren Personalkosten, um unsere Cluster zu verwalten und die Verfügbarkeit rund um die Uhr zu gewährleisten.“
"The challenge with open source Kafka and resiliency is the same that you have with all open source systems, you have to create your own resiliency model, you have to understand the model. You have to operate it. With Confluent, resiliency is built in the service - we just signed for a given SLA"
