Confluent, the data streaming pioneer, has expanded its Tableflow capabilities to offer channel partners a powerful pathway into the fast-growing real-time analytics and AI market. With the General Availability of Delta Lake and Databricks Unity Catalog integrations — along with Early Access support on Microsoft OneLake — Tableflow is now a fully managed stream-to-table solution ready to unlock new revenue, consulting, and managed services opportunities.
“High-quality, governed, and real-time data is the new currency of competitive advantage.”
—Shaun Clowes, Chief Product Officer, Confluent
Built for multicloud, Tableflow eliminates traditional ETL complexities by directly transforming Kafka topics into governed, analytics-ready Delta Lake or Apache Iceberg tables. With automated catalog synchronization, upsert functionality, schema evolution, and Dead Letter Queue-enabled error handling, Tableflow delivers enterprise-grade reliability, governance, and data quality — a compelling proposition for solution providers and system integrators.
For channel partners, this means greater consulting potential across Azure Databricks, Microsoft Fabric, Snowflake, and AWS ecosystems — helping customers accelerate AI readiness, regulatory compliance, and digital transformation.
“With Confluent Tableflow on Azure, customers can instantly stream Kafka events into OneLake and unlock AI-driven decisions faster.”
—Dipti Borkar, VP & GM, Microsoft OneLake and ISV Ecosystem
The availability of Tableflow on Microsoft OneLake further widens the partner opportunity landscape by enabling seamless integration into Azure-native analytics workflows — powered by instant materialization of streaming data as open tables for AI, ML, and BI applications.
Global enterprises like Attune are already using Confluent Tableflow to transform IoT streaming data into trusted datasets for analytics, machine learning, and generative AI, demonstrating clear monetization and innovation potential for partners.
As channel partners navigate the growing demand for real-time decision intelligence, Confluent Tableflow emerges as a strategic enabler to modernize architectures, enhance governance, and build high-value AI solutions — across industries, clouds, and data platforms.
