By integrating with SAP Datasphere, Confluent delivers a cloud-native data streaming platform to connect and process SAP systems data in real time.
Confluent has announced to integrate with SAP Datasphere and delivers a secure, governed solution for accessing SAP data as fully managed data streams for customers. Confluent is a partner in the SAP PartnerEdge program. The SAP PartnerEdge program provides the enablement tools, benefits and support to facilitate building high-quality, disruptive applications focused on specific business needs – quickly and cost-effectively.
“SAP Data is a vital business asset spanning so many important functions from manufacturing to supply chain, finance, human resources, and beyond. Connecting siloed teams and applications with real-time data streams creates a powerful network effect that opens new avenues for growth and innovation. We’re now giving our customers a simple way to connect their data from SAP solutions with downstream systems while avoiding the costs and complexities of open-source infrastructure management,” said Erica Schultz, President of Field Operations, Confluent.
“Leveraging the SAP and Confluent product suite, we enable our clients to accelerate their cloud-powered digital transformations, unlock substantive business innovations, and create new growth opportunities to propel them ahead of their competition,” said Dmitry Frydliand, Head of SAP Competency Center, EPAM.
Configured directly within SAP Datasphere, the new Confluent integration allows businesses to build real-time applications at a lower cost with fully managed data streams powered by Confluent’s Kora Engine, which reduces the total cost of ownership for Kafka by up to 60%. It will help maintain strict security, compliance, and governance standards with enterprise-grade data streaming security controls, and the industry’s only fully managed governance suite for Kafka.
