Confluent Cloud Now Accessible in AWS Marketplace AI Agents and Tools Category
Confluent, a data streaming platform provider, has announced the availability of Confluent Cloud in the new AI Agents and Tools category of AWS Marketplace. This integration enables AWS customers to locate, acquire, and implement AI agent solutions, including Confluent’s fully managed data streaming platform, directly through their AWS accounts. The aim is to accelerate the development of AI agents and agentic workflows.
As AI agents expand, managing and sharing data across agents, tools, and external systems becomes more complex. Without access to precise and current information, agents may provide inaccurate or outdated responses, or cease to function. Confluent Cloud addresses this by streaming, connecting, processing, and governing data in real time throughout a business. This facilitates the faster creation and deployment of intelligent, adaptable, and scalable AI applications.
Shaun Clowes, Chief Product Officer at Confluent, stated, “Data silos are the single biggest barrier to making AI agents truly enterprise-ready. Without seamless access to real-time, trustworthy data, even the most advanced AI models can’t deliver on its promise. By offering Confluent Cloud in AWS Marketplace, we’re providing customers with a streamlined way to access our cloud-native data streaming platform, helping them buy and deploy AI agent solutions faster and more efficiently.”
Confluent Cloud is designed to make data available and actionable, supporting informed decisions, improved customer experiences, and accelerated innovation. This collaboration offers a unified platform for organizations as they adopt AI. Confluent replaces fragmented, batch-based systems with a continuous stream of business context, forming a real-time data backbone that AI agents can utilize for interaction and reasoning. Confluent Cloud aims to help businesses scale confidently with AI integration.
The availability of AI Agents and Tools in AWS Marketplace significantly expedites the procurement process for AI innovation, reducing the time required for vendor evaluations and complex negotiations. Centralized purchasing through AWS accounts provides customers with visibility and control over licensing, payments, and access.
