With our strong partnership with Confluent, you can load your real-time data from Confluent Cloud or Apache Kafka into Timeplus.
Listen to your Apache Kafka topics directly.
Load streaming data into Timeplus in 3 easy steps:

1. Cluster and Topic
Specify the bootstrap server and topic for your source, and enter your authentication details.
3. Load into Stream
Your data will be loaded into a stream. Create an append-only or versioned/changelog stream.
2. Data Format
For “Read as” formats, we currently support JSON, AVRO, and Text format.

All data live in streams in Timeplus.
Timeplus is a streaming analytics platform, and our streams are similar to tables in traditional SQL databases.
We have three modes for streams:
Append-Only
By default, streams are append-only and immutable. Older data can be purged automatically by setting a retention policy.
Versioned Stream
When you query a versioned stream directly, only the latest version for the same primary key(s) will be shown.
Changelog Stream
Similar to a versioned stream, only the latest version for the same primary key(s) will be shown. Data can be updated or deleted.
