# StreamNative > StreamNative provides the unified real-time data infrastructure and AI agent runtime for the agentic enterprise. The platform combines native Kafka streaming, Apache Pulsar messaging, managed Flink processing, and a governed agent engine into a single cloud-native service powered by the Lakestream architecture and Ursa Engine — a leaderless, diskless, lakehouse-native storage layer. ## Core Products ### Data Streaming - [Kafka](https://streamnative.io/data-streaming/kafka): Native Kafka service powered by Ursa Engine — not a compatibility layer. Keep your Kafka APIs while eliminating cluster sprawl and cutting infra cost by up to 95%. - [Pulsar](https://streamnative.io/data-streaming/pulsar): Production-proven Apache Pulsar messaging with multi-tenancy, geo-replication, and unified queues plus streams. - [Universal Connect](https://streamnative.io/data-streaming/connect): Unified connector framework (UniConn) for Kafka Connect and Pulsar IO with 200+ production-ready connectors. - [Universal Linking](https://streamnative.io/data-streaming/universal-linking): Mirror any Kafka-compatible cluster into Ursa with full fidelity and automatically represent streams as Iceberg/Delta lakehouse tables. ### Lakestream Architecture - [Lakestream](https://streamnative.io/lakestream): Lakehouse-native streaming architecture that treats streams as first-class lakehouse primitives. Three layers — data (Ursa), metadata (catalog), protocol (Kafka/Pulsar) — unify streaming and the lakehouse on open formats. ### Agent Engine - [Orca Agent Engine](https://streamnative.io/agent-engine/overview): Secure, governed runtime for AI agents — event-driven execution, live streaming context, safe tool access, and enterprise governance. ### Stream Processing - [Managed Apache Flink](https://streamnative.io/products/flink): Fully managed Apache Flink powered by Ververica VERA engine with auto-scaling, Flink SQL, and integrated stream processing with native Kafka and Pulsar. ## Cloud Deployment - [StreamNative Cloud](https://streamnative.io/cloud/overview): Fully managed platform with Serverless, Dedicated, and BYOC deployment options across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. Free Serverless tier available. ## Solutions - [Solutions Overview](https://streamnative.io/solutions): Industry and use-case solutions for real-time data and AI agent workloads. - [Confluent Alternative](https://streamnative.io/confluent-alternative): StreamNative as a Confluent alternative — native Kafka on Ursa Engine with lakehouse-native storage, up to 95% lower cost, and zero code changes. ## Resources - [Blog](https://streamnative.io/blog): Technical articles, product updates, and streaming ecosystem insights. - [Success Stories](https://streamnative.io/success-stories): Customer case studies from enterprises using StreamNative in production. - [Events](https://streamnative.io/events): Upcoming conferences, webinars, and community meetups. ## Company - [About](https://streamnative.io/about): Founded by the original creators of Apache Pulsar, StreamNative is backed by leading investors and serves global enterprises. - [Partners](https://streamnative.io/partners): Technology and cloud partner ecosystem including Databricks, Snowflake, AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. - [Careers](https://streamnative.io/careers): Open positions at StreamNative. - [Contact](https://streamnative.io/contact): Get in touch with the StreamNative team. ## Extended Information - [llms-full.txt](https://streamnative.io/llms-full.txt): Comprehensive product details, differentiators, and customer success stories.
