jpnn.comJAKARTA – Confluent, Inc, a data streaming pioneer, announced the general availability of Confluent Cloud for Apache Flink, a fully managed service for Apache Flink.

This service allows customers to process data in real time and create high-quality, reusable data streams.

Confluent Cloud for Apache Flink is available on Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure. Backed by Confluent’s 99.99 percent uptime SLA, Confluent’s cloud-native service for Flink enables reliable serverless streaming processing.

Companies today are under immense pressure to deliver exceptional customer experiences and streamline operations in the face of advanced use cases such as fraud detection, predictive maintenance and real-time inventory and supply chain management.

Stream processing is a critical part of enabling these real-time experiences because it allows organizations to act on incoming data instantly to process it incrementally, without waiting when the data is often stale and no longer usable.

As a computing layer in a streaming data infrastructure, streaming processing helps teams filter, combine, and enrich data in real time to make it more usable and valuable to share with downstream applications and systems. This creates a high-quality data stream that can be reused for multiple projects and provides increased agility, data consistency, and cost savings compared to traditional batch processing solutions.

As the de facto streaming processing standard, Flink is relied on by innovative companies like Airbnb, Uber, Netflix, and Stripe to support mission-critical streaming workloads. This is what triggered a surge in Flink’s popularity. In 2023, Flink was downloaded nearly one million times.

“Stream processing is critical to gaining timely insights from a continuous stream of data to support a variety of critical use cases including fraud detection, dynamic pricing, and real-time inventory and supply chain management,” said Stewart Bond, Research VP, Data Integration and Data Intelligence Software IDC.
