Story
Health Care work at Align Technology spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in the United States. Governed analytics was splitting across regional habits. Analysts and finance partners asked for a shared way to run enterprise reporting without freezing local judgment.
Confluent (Flink on Confluent) is what they standardized on. Confluent is the data streaming platform built around Apache Kafka, used to move events between applications in real time. Align Technology uses it as the system of record for governed analytics, with analysts and finance partners as the primary operators and other groups coming in through the same queue.
