    Real-Time Data, Zero Friction; How Ververica + Aiven Accelerate Time to Value

    Enterprises today know that real-time data is no longer a competitive edge—it’s a requirement. Yet building reliable, scalable, and secure streaming data infrastructure often involves stitching together complex systems, heavy operational overhead, and governance challenges that slow down innovation.

    In this session, Ververica and Aiven will share how their partnership removes these friction points by uniting the power of Apache Flink® and Ververica Platform with Aiven’s fully managed open-source data services. Together, they enable enterprises to simplify operations, accelerate developer productivity, and unlock actionable insights from data as it flows—without compromising on governance, observability, or scale.
