Stream Designer is a visual interface for building, testing, and deploying streaming data pipelines natively on Apache Kafka. It provides a graphical canvas for designing pipelines and translates the pipeline definitions into ksqlDB code under the hood. Stream Designer offers speed, simplicity, and flexibility, making it easier to build streaming data pipelines without requiring extensive knowledge of Kafka or Java-based Kafka Streams. The tool also provides pre-built connectors, stream processing use case recipes, and a built-in SQL editor for developers to easily reuse production-ready pipelines and collaborate with others in real-time. Stream Designer is now generally available on Confluent Cloud and can be used to build streaming data pipelines that support decoupling of data sources and sinks, continuous data processing, and triggering actions based on real-time events.
