The release of Confluent for Kubernetes puts Confluent APIs into Kubernetes API for data-streaming with Apache Kafka, enabling customers to manage all Confluent Platform components across multicloud and on-premise environments. By doing so, the platform bridges a much-needed gap for data access between on-premises and cloud infrastructure for data streaming in Kubernetes environments. Confluent Platform 6.0 was created to solve several issues operations teams face when managing clusters with Kafka, including having to manually link clusters together.

With Confluent for Kubernetes we drew on our experience managing thousands of Kafka clusters in Confluent Cloud to create a cloud-native experience for managing data streams, even for customers on private infrastructures,” Bakhshi said.

With Confluent for Kubernetes they can seamlessly deploy and operate Confluent Platform in their private datacenter and connect the data in their cloud environments to Confluent Cloud.”
