Confluent Eco-system Forum
Cologne 2018

Confluent Eco-system Forum
Get to know Apache Kafka & Confluent.

Companies in all sectors and industries are adopting streaming platforms to build event-driven architectures and the “weapon of choice” to stay on top of fast changing businesses is Apache Kafka. Since Kafka was created in 2012, the growth has been astonishing. Six out of ten companies process 1 million or more messages daily through Kafka.

To meet the ever increasing demand, Confluent, the creators of Apache Kafka, rely on a growing network of partners.

As our customer base is growing, our partner network needs to do the same. Join the stream team and learn more about:

• Confluent’s partner & support models

• Have conversations with some of our technology partners and learn how their capabilities add value to stream solutions

• Training options for Developer and Operations on Apache Kafka, KSQL and Confluent Platform as well as Confluent Cloud

• Best Practices from our existing partners and how they are growing their success by putting a streaming platform as a central nervous system in the heart of every company

BEST PRACTICE ROUNDTABLES

The Confluent partner network will meet in Cologne on November 20th. Save your seat at our roundtables. The event will centre on a series of roundtables hosted by an existing partner and be very interactive:

• “Managing millions of data records in the sense of complex legal regulations with Confluent and SVA, e.g. GDPR and PNR (Passenger Name Records)" - a conversation with SVA 

• "Why Apache Kafka?" - Join codecentric for a fundamental comparison run by with ESB, Reactive Streams, Kinesis and classical message queues and why it is a million times faster 

• "Enabling realtime SAP data” - a conversation with Attunity
• "Deploy high available, fast and scalable cloud agnostic applications" - Futureproof microservices with Couchbase and Confluent
