Story
Murata Manufacturing grew secure data sharing faster than the local tools around it. From Japan, information technology teams still had to serve customers and internal partners who expected a straight answer. Data platform and lines of business were the ones stitching the picture together by hand.
Rolling out Confluent Cloud put partner data exchange on Confluent. Confluent is the data streaming platform built around Apache Kafka, used to move events between applications in real time. Murata Manufacturing keeps the product in the path where work already happens, so data platform and lines of business do not context-switch into a graveyard system used only for audits.
The visible result is steadier partner data exchange. Secure data sharing is easier to inspect, and adjacent groups can join data platform and lines of business without a guided tour of someone's desktop.
