About Us

Who we are

Ververica's mission is to power the core business of every company with cutting-edge real-time stream processing technology. In order to do that, the team at Ververica focuses on building the best technology available for stream processing, while at the same time creating a global and open community around this technology.

We build and develop Ververica Platform, a stream processing platform that enables every enterprise to power their real-time business and use a production-grade streaming infrastructure while at the same time we actively contribute and participate in the open source Apache Flink® community, the underlying technology framework of Ververica Platform itself.

Our Story

Veverica (formerly data Artisans) was founded in 2014 as a spinoff of a research group at TU Berlin that developed a real time, distributed data processing platform. After founding the company, we open sourced the data processing framework to the Apache Software Foundation as Apache Flink^®. We soon embarked on a journey of developing Apache Flink^® in the open source and spearheading the adoption of the open source framework across the world.

In 2017, we introduced dA Platform (now called Ververica Platform) to the market: A stream processing platform with Apache Flink aiming at streamlining the lifecycle management and operationalizing stateful stream processing in production.

In 2019, data Artisans joined forces with Alibaba and was renamed to Ververica, bringing Ververica Platform to the market while continuing and expanding its contributions to Apache Flink^®.
