Confluent announces new capabilities to ensure data quality

Confluent announces new capabilities to ensure data quality

This week Confluent announced new Confluent Cloud capabilities. They should “give customers confidence that their data is trustworthy and can be easily processed and securely shared. “The data streaming specialist is launching a range of new features to secure data for decision-making.

Confluent is introducing what they call Data Quality Rules, an expansion of the Stream Governance suite. It aims to help organizations easily resolve data quality issues so data can be relied on for making business-critical decisions.

In addition, Confluent’s new Custom Connectors, Stream Sharing, the Kora Engine, and early access program for managed Apache Flink make it easier for companies to gain insights from their data on one platform. This should help reduce operational burdens and ensure industry-leading performance.

Confluent made these announcements at the Kafka Summit London a leading event for developers, architects, data engineers, DevOps professionals, and those looking to learn more about streaming data and Apache Kafka.

Introducing Data Quality Rules

To address the need for more comprehensive data contracts, Confluent’s Data Quality Rules enable organizations to deliver trusted, high-quality data streams across the organization using customizable rules that ensure data integrity and compatibility. With Data Quality Rules, schemas stored in Schema Registry can now be augmented with several types of rules. In the process, teams can ensure high data integrity by validating and constraining the values of individual fields within a data stream.

The new rules also help users quickly resolve data quality issues with customizable follow-up actions on incompatible messages. They also “simplify schema evolution using migration rules to transform messages from one data format to another”, Confluent says.

Securing “real-time data”

Shaun Clowes, Chief Product Officer at Confluent, hailed the new features. “Real-time data is the lifeblood of every organization, but it’s extremely challenging to manage data coming from different sources in real time and guarantee that it’s trustworthy,” he said.

“As a result, many organizations build a patchwork of solutions plagued with silos and business inefficiencies. Confluent Cloud’s new capabilities fix these issues by providing an easy path to ensuring trusted data can be shared with the right people in the right formats”.
