https://www.confluent.io/?utm_content=inline-mention has added a number of new features to its platform for its Confluent Q2 ‘22 cloud bundle release, including enhanced role-based access control (RBAC) and Grafana-metrics support. The release represents its latest effort to expand on data streaming support and services built on open source https://kafka.apache.org/ for organizations requiring streaming to maintain real- or near real-time access to data at scale.

Confluent’s RBAC control for individual Kafka resources now extends to Kafka topics (which describe the different data systems of record), consumer groups and transactional IDs.

“This has resulted in many enterprises starting their data streaming journey in Confluent Cloud, and existing customers adopting Confluent to manage hybrid and multicloud environments,” Rosanova said.

As use cases grow, the cost and time associated with managing Kafka increases too,” Rosanova said.
