Cerved expedites strategic decision-making with real-time data access from Confluent
Availability of data is crucial, and having a fully managed platform for the data distribution lets us provide solutions to our customers at speed
Challenge
Distributed databases in different technologies were causing slow query times and high latency as the system struggled to locate and process data at speed — which negatively impacted service delivery.

Cerved is an IT company and leading provider of credit information, market advice, and risk intelligence serving a variety of sectors. Over 30,000 businesses and 95% of Italian banks use Cerved to identify new strategies, protect themselves from risk, improve performance, and grow sustainably.
Data is the driving force behind Cerved’s continued success. But when that data is split across multiple platforms that don’t communicate, accessing key insights is time-consuming and wastes resources that could be better used elsewhere.
To provide a faster and more effective B2B service, Cerved needed a streaming platform that could handle huge amounts of data and form the basis for its new, connected ecosystem.
In 2017, Confluent provided Cerved with an on premise platform to manage faster access to business-critical data at the touch of a button. The information services provided could now deliver strategic solutions and risk management support to the business in near real time.
