Download our Guide

Organizations are increasingly turning to data streaming to build more efficient processes and more responsive customer experiences. Many early adopters have successfully built on-premise data streaming platforms with self-managed Apache Kafka® but struggle when trying to implement use cases that require better performance and reliability.

In this Quick Guide, you’ll learn about:

  • The business benefits of migrating your data streaming use cases to the cloud
  • The challenges facing organizations who chose to self-manage vs. choosing a cloud-native Kafka service
  • Why infinite scale, elasticity, multi-tenancy, and global replication are essential features for a cloud-native data streaming platform
  • How the capabilities of open-source Kafka and Confluent Cloud differ

Check out the guide to learn more.
