Amazon Kinesis vs. Confluent

Amazon Kinesis is a suite of managed services designed to collect, process, and analyze real-time streaming data at scale. It enables organizations to handle large volumes of data from diverse sources such as website clickstreams, database event logs, financial transactions, social media feeds, and IoT devices. By facilitating real-time data ingestion and analysis, Kinesis empowers businesses to derive actionable insights promptly, enhancing decision-making processes and operational efficiency.

Today’s customers expect every digital experience to be immediate, connected, and personalized. That takes more than data at rest - it takes trusted data in motion. Confluent is the complete Data Streaming Platform for keeping data in motion from the moment business change occurs through processing, governance, and serving. Built by the original creators of Apache Kafka®, Confluent connects applications, services, and systems; processes streams in real time with Apache Flink®; and serves trusted, always-current data wherever it is needed across cloud, hybrid, and self-managed environments.
