Redpanda for Software & Technology
Redpanda provides the infrastructure software and technology companies need to build and ship enterprise-grade agentic AI/ML systems — from connectivity, context and governance to real-time data streaming pipelines that you can launch in minutes. From prototype to production, Redpanda handles the data foundation so your teams can focus on building.

Why Redpanda Data Platform?
Stream, connect, and query. One platform.
The streaming, connectivity, and SQL infrastructure that agents run on.
Stream
Up to 1 GB/sec write throughput per node, built in C++. The event stream agents reason from, delivered in real time.
Connect
CDC from Postgres, MySQL, MongoDB, and others. Iceberg output, Snowflake Streaming, Salesforce, Google Drive, and 300+ more. No custom pipelines.
SQL
Ad-hoc SQL queries against live topics and Iceberg history. No union logic. No pipeline lag. No stale snapshots.
Agent workloads that can't afford stale data.
Agent analysts
Agents thrive on structured data, fanning out across hundreds of parallel SQL queries to explore a hypothesis. Queries hit live data. Answers match reality.
RAG pipelines
Accurate RAG requires fresh context. Redpanda feeds retrieval pipelines from live event streams, not a warehouse that's already ten minutes behind.
Private inferencing
Regulated data that can't leave your environment can still be queried by agents inside your VPC. No egress, no exposure, no compromise.
AI observability
Every LLM execution is traceable to its source data in the event log. Audit trails are built in, not bolted on.
Why Redpanda Agentic Data Plane?
Redpanda closes the gap between agents and data.
A governed access layer that connects data systems and mediates every agentic interaction.
Trust
Apply on-behalf-of (OBO) authorization and OIDC identity to every agent. Every data access is mediated, attributed, and controlled.
Context
Connect agents to 300+ data sources via MCP servers and connectors. Agents get what they need. Nothing more.
Explainability
Every agent action is recorded in the durable event log. Replay, audit, or challenge any decision. The record is immutable.
Control
Set guardrails, enforce token limits, and trigger kill switches before an agent goes rogue. Governance that doesn't slow agents down.
Connect data from any source and handle any real-time streaming workload.
Real-time bidding
Redpanda processes billions of bid request events per day at millisecond latency. Agents pull live audience signals, campaign pacing, and contextual data to influence bid decisions — with every action logged and replayable for brand safety and fraud investigation.
Campaign optimization
Agents continuously monitor ad server events, attribution data, and CRM signals. When a campaign drifts from KPIs, agents detect the anomaly and execute budget reallocation automatically — no overnight reports, no manual triage.
Threat detection and response
Redpanda ingests logs, network flows, and endpoint telemetry at scale, routing signals to your detection stack in real time. Agents correlate data across streams, query threat intel via MCP, classify incidents, and trigger response playbooks — with a full audit trail of every action.

Predictive maintenance
Redpanda captures and routes machine telemetry in sequence across thousands of sensors. Agents detect anomalies, search equipment manuals, check parts inventory, and open maintenance tickets automatically. With BYOC, operational data stays in your environment.
Fraud detection and compliance
Redpanda processes payment events at the latency real-time decisioning requires. Agents operate on transaction streams under declarative access policies, with immutable transcripts that help satisfy PCI-DSS and other audit requirements.
Live player personalization
Redpanda handles the event backbone for leaderboards, matchmaking, and live ops at scale. Agents monitor player behavior streams in real time, detect churn signals, and trigger personalized offers to increase player engagement.
