Business Impact of Data Streaming: State of Data in Motion Report 2022

Global survey of tech leaders shows real-time data streams can lead to more revenue and happier customers.

With 97% of organizations around the world tapping into real-time data streams, it is one of the most important technologies for surviving and thriving in today's dynamic, digital-first landscape. For the inaugural State of Data in Motion report, Confluent surveyed 1,950 IT and engineering leaders across six countries.

  • Findings show that data in motion can underpin businesses that excel, now and into the future. More than 80% of organizations report real-time data streams are critical to building responsive business processes and rich, customer experiences.

  • However, harnessing the full power of real-time data streams is difficult for many organizations. In fact, 60% of tech leaders say difficulties integrating multiple data sources are the biggest hurdle to accessing more real-time data.

  • Real-time data streaming becomes even more important as organizations struggle with cloud strategies. Only 39% of respondents say they’re “completely prepared” to operate in a hybrid cloud environment, where some of their data is in the cloud and some still on premises.
