CONNX for Kafka

Stream mainframe data to your Kafka-powered systems and end data silos for good.

Get critical data where you need it, fast

Anywhere from 40 to 80% of mission-critical enterprise data still sits on the mainframe—yet that data is often the hardest to leverage in modern data streaming initiatives.

CONNX for Kafka creates a stable streaming connection with your mainframe to unlock your most valuable data, enriching your Kafka streams without disrupting your core systems.
