"Data governance is critical at Rabobank. With Axual, we’re able to see who has permission, who owns the data, or if the owner has given permission and what the structure of the messages are.”

Vincent Oostindië
Security, Rabobank

"We were at a crossroads, with legacy technology preventing a solid digital transformation, and an ambitious strategy for customer centricity underlining requirements for becoming data-driven. We really needed the Axual platform to allow us to make the leap.”

FAQs

Got questions? We’ve got answers! Below are some common questions about our services.

What is the difference between the Governance, Streaming, and Platform plans?

All available on-prem, in your private cloud or as SaaS. Contact us to determine the best fit for your business.

The listed prices cover the core features of each plan. Additionally we offer various support options. Contact our team to determine what is best for your situation.

How does the implementation process work?

We can provide full support for implementation, including migration and integration with your existing systems. Our team will guide you through the setup to ensure a seamless transition.

Is Kafka free?

Yes, Apache Kafka is an open-source platform, which means you can use it for free. However, running Kafka in production comes with additional costs, such as infrastructure, maintenance, monitoring, and operational expertise. Many businesses opt for managed Kafka solutions to reduce complexity and operational overhead.

How much does Kafka cost?

Kafka itself is free and open-source, with commonly used flavours like Apache Kafka and Strimzi available for anyone to use. However, running Kafka comes with costs. If you manage it yourself, you’ll need to invest in infrastructure, maintenance, and operational expertise. A managed Kafka service takes care of everything for you, with pricing based on factors like usage, storage, and performance needs. This way, you can focus on your data without worrying about the setup.
