Mainframe Modernization with Confluent
Leverage Confluent’s data in motion platform to unlock your mainframe data for real-time insights without incurring the complexity and expense that come with sending ongoing queries to mainframe databases
Modernizing Mainframes for Real-Time
From order processing to financial transactions, inventory control to payroll, mainframes continue to support many mission-critical applications, still performing the majority of batch processing for many enterprises. Data-driven enterprises need real-time access to mainframe data to feed distributed applications, microservices and other business operations, and to enable organizations to use all their data for competitive advantage.
Confluent enables you to combine data from mainframes with real-time data across the rest of your organization to increase the benefits of both.
Augment
Augment with Apache Kafka to build a more modern data-store and keep it in real-time sync with the mainframe.
Modernize
Reduce overall operational expenses while providing a path for architectural modernization.
Integrate
Enable event-driven microservices and deliver to other systems such as data warehouses and search indexes.
