I would not subscribe to the Confluent platform, but rather stay on the free open source version. The extra cost wasn't justified.

IBM MQ is a middleware product used to send or exchange messages across multiple platforms, including applications, systems, files, and services via MQs (messaging queues). This solution helps simplify the creation of business applications, and also makes them easier to maintain. IBM MQ is security-rich, has high performance, and provides a universal messaging backbone with robust connectivity. In addition, it also integrates easily with existing IT assets by using an SOA (service oriented architecture).
IBM MQ has a flexible license model based on the Processor Value Unit (PVU) and I recommend it.
It's super expensive, so ask them if they can consolidate some other licensing costs. But, IBM is IBM, so I guess we'll pay for it.

Plan your licensing model (cloud or on-premises or hybrid) that will allow seamless integration with new partners.
This is expensive. In my next project, we had to go to other vendor.
