Overall Satisfaction with IBM Event Streams

We use IBM Event Streams at Call Copy to build smart apps for events. We also engage event streams to act as a buffer for connecting our data sources to their data pools. We have also integrated Event streams with IBM Cloud Pak to improve how we scale in the cloud.

Pros

  • It is adaptive and helps us create more engaging experiences on our platforms.
  • The Key metrics dashboard is rich with insights.

Cons

  • Even if you have experience with other event streaming software, you'll still have to take the IBM course because of its complexity.
  • Deployment is easier because it supports Red Hat which I'm very familiar with.
  • It can replicate data in the event of a disaster-recovery situation.
The easiest and most successful integration with Event streams for us so far has been with IBM Clod Pak. With this combination, we get more built in AI Insights to modernize and scale our Apache Kafka expeditions.
