The Bridge to Azure architecture allows event streaming applications to run anywhere and everywhere using Microsoft Azure, Confluent Replicator, and Confluent Cloud. This enables organizations to migrate or extend any application running on premises or other clouds to Azure. The architecture uses Confluent Platform for data ingestion and processing, Confluent Replicator for real-time replication across environments, and Confluent Cloud for scalable and secure event streaming. Additionally, the architecture integrates with various Azure services such as Azure Data Lake Storage (ADLS), Azure SQL Database, and Power BI, allowing organizations to leverage these services for data analysis and visualization. By using this architecture, organizations can create a digital-first strategy that meets customers where they are, while also ensuring data governance, security, and scalability.
