If you have a need to stream data, real time or segmented structured data then Confluent is a great platform to do so with. You won't run into packet transfer size limitations that other platforms have. Flexibility in on-prem, cloud, and managed cloud offerings makes it very flexible no matter how you choose to implement.

The support from the Confluent platform is great and satisfying. We have been working with Confluent for more than a year now.

Overall, it has been a great experience working with the Confluent Platform.
