Summary

Confluent Cloud for Government has achieved FedRAMP 20x Low authorization, allowing it to be listed on the FedRAMP Marketplace and enabling both public and private sector customers to utilize its cloud-native data streaming platform for mission-critical applications. This development marks the conclusion of Phase One of Confluent's FedRAMP 20x Pilot program and allows government customers to immediately employ the service for building real-time applications and modernizing data infrastructure. The company plans to move into Phase Two by seeking FedRAMP 20x Moderate authorization, thereby broadening its service capabilities to agencies requiring enhanced security and compliance. Additionally, Confluent continues to support government missions by offering a platform designed to quickly respond to event streams, and it has announced an expanded partnership with Databricks to enhance the integration of analytical and operational systems.
