KStreams Applications

Challenge: Modernizing legacy systems for traditional banks to
enable them to innovate faster, deliver hyper-personalized customer
experiences, and compete with digital- native banks.
Solution: Deliver a cloud-native SaaS solution— powered by
Confluent Cloud’s real-time data streaming platform.
Results:
● Reduced costs with increased agility and faster time to market for
traditional banks
● Achieved better hyper-personalized experiences for banking
customers
● Delivered a resilient and highly available platform
● Enhanced enterprise-grade security
● Reduced TCO with simplified management
“Our mission is to make banking 10x better for banks, for customers,
and society. To do that, we need a cloud-native data streaming platform
that is also 10x more reliable, 10x more performant than Apache
Kafka.”
– Mark Holt, Chief Product and Engineering Officer at 10x Banking

Challenge: Escalating costs and burden of managing Kafka on their own,
while relying on Kafka services that lacked a complete platform for all their
streaming needs.
Solution: Used a combination of Confluent Cloud and Confluent Platform
to build streaming data pipelines and scale faster, govern data better, and
ultimately lower TCO by offloading the management of their data
streaming infrastructure to Confluent.
Results:
● $1M+ in TCO savings for their data streaming infra compared to
managing in-house
● The ability to seamlessly scale data 10 to 100x, a game changer for
the company
“It’s amazing how much more we can get done when we don’t have to
worry about exactly how to do things. We can trust Confluent to offer a
secure and rock-solid Kafka platform with a myriad of value-add
capabilities like security, connectors, and stream governance on top.”
– Jared Smith, Senior Director, Threat Intelligence, at SecurityScorecard

Schema Registry Migration Options
Replicator Schema Translation
• Confluent Cloud can only be
the destination
• SR must be in IMPORT mode
Schema Linking
• Requires SR version 7.1
source (preview with 7.0)
• If destination context is empty,
exporter sets context to
IMPORT mode
• Non-empty context can be set
to import mode with PUT
/mode?force=true, but watch
out for ID collisions
Confluent Cloud-schema-
exporter (REST API)
• Uses REST API, destination SR
must be empty and in IMPORT
mode
• Best solution for migration
from a non-Confluent SR (ex.
Apicurio)
- For REST API, IMPORT mode
can be subject level
