That’s a wrap on #Current26 San Francisco! 💙

Here’s to the people, the energy, and the moments that made this week unforgettable.

.@confluentinc says it can now answer live business questions directly from its platform - removing the need for customers to bolt on on an extra database. @Derek_duPreez breaks down the benefits and what this means for buyers: bit.ly/4A8StTV

The lakehouse explains what happened. Streamhouse powers what happens next.

Compare the two and learn how a Streamhouse:
↳ Maintains a view of business state as it changes
↳ Puts live data on the operational critical path of production systems
↳ Serves agents, apps, and e fresh, governed source of truth

See how it works: ibm.co/6011EV2Vz

Spend less time troubleshooting pipeline breaks and painful cluster migrations and more time building your Streamhouse.

Check out the new updates that make Confluent Cloud and Confluent Cloud simpler to build on, simpler to run and more cost-effective: ibm.co/6017EV0CH

Today, @confluentinc introduced Streamhouse, a new data architecture to power decisions in the AI era.

Learn how the new capabilities give AI agents, apps and lakehouses one continuously current, governed view of the business: ibm.co/6017EV2dV

A special helmet for a very special weekend... Arvid Lindblad races on Diwali this weekend 🇮🇳

Apache Kafka® 4.4 is here!

Watch @SandonJacobs break down the highlights in the video below and get the full details on our blog: confluent.io/blog/introduci…

Apache Kafka migrations don't have to mean guesswork.

Join our webinar with Psyncopate on Nov 10 at 10 AM PT for a live demo on de-risking your migration from planning to cutover & rollback.

Only 32% of orgs are using agentic AI in production.
The roadblock? Stale data.

Historical data isn't enough. AI agents need real-time, governed context to take action.

Every second means everything.
Let’s get after it, @visacashapprb.

#SingaporeGP #F1 #VCARB #Confluent

In just a few short weeks, we’re bringing together developers, data engineers, and AI practitioners to be the first to learn the latest trends, discover exciting innovations, and even become certified Data Streaming Engineers.

@ABridgwater shares what you can expect at o in @ComputerWeekly: ibm.co/6010Epml6

Agents need continuous context to run in production environments.

See how streaming operational data through our data streaming platform grounds @GeminiApp agents in the real-time data needed to understand your business as it stands right now, not yesterday: P

Observability is becoming a data streaming challenge.

As telemetry scales and operational data becomes more valuable, the problem lies in how teams collect, move, process, and reuse data that data scale.

Learn how to tackle it in our upcoming webinar: ibm.co/6010EThSs

Hands-on coding, expert-led sessions, and a free certification, all in one morning!

Join us on September 22 to build real-time AI agents with Apache Kafka and Apache Flink, and get certified.
