Confluent vs. Amazon Kinesis Data Analytics

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.

Amazon Kinesis Data Analytics is the easiest way to transform and analyze streaming data in real time with Apache Flink. Kinesis Data Analytics reduces the complexity of building, managing, and integrating Apache Flink applications with other AWS services. Kinesis Data Analytics takes care of everything required to run streaming applications continuously, and scales automatically to match the volume and throughput of your incoming data.
