Partnership accelerates enterprise AI agent development with real-time data streaming capabilities
Confluent, Inc., the data streaming pioneer, today announced that Confluent Cloud is now available in the newly launched AI Agents and Tools category of AWS Marketplace. This strategic move enables AWS customers to seamlessly discover, purchase, and deploy Confluent’s fully managed data streaming platform using their existing AWS accounts—streamlining the development of intelligent, scalable AI agents and agentic workflows.
Solving the AI Agent Data Challenge
As AI agents proliferate across enterprises, accessing and sharing real-time data across systems becomes increasingly complex. Without fresh, trustworthy data, agents risk delivering outdated or inaccurate responses. Confluent Cloud addresses this challenge by streaming, connecting, processing, and governing data in real time, empowering organizations to build adaptive and reliable AI applications.
“Data silos are the single biggest barrier to making AI agents truly enterprise-ready.”
— Shaun Clowes, Chief Product Officer, Confluent
“Even the most advanced AI models can’t deliver on their promise without seamless access to real-time, trustworthy data,” said Shaun Clowes. “By offering Confluent Cloud in AWS Marketplace, we’re helping customers accelerate AI agent deployment with a streamlined procurement and integration process.”
A Unified Backbone for AI Innovation
Confluent Cloud replaces fragmented, batch-based systems with a continuously updating stream of business context, creating a shared data backbone that AI agents can subscribe to, interact with, and reason over. This real-time infrastructure enhances decision-making, customer experiences, and innovation velocity.
With centralized purchasing through AWS accounts, customers gain greater visibility and control over licensing, payments, and access, while reducing time spent on vendor evaluations and negotiations.
