# Estuary Flow is Now Estuary: A Name Change Only

Estuary Flow is now Estuary. This is a name change only. Your pipelines, connectors, pricing, contracts, APIs, and integrations remain unchanged.

## Why the Change?

When we launched Estuary Flow, our focus was clear: making real-time data integration dramatically simpler and more reliable.

Since then, the platform has expanded. Today, Estuary supports:

- Real-time and batch data pipelines
- Unified streaming and historical data processing
- Private, hybrid, and BYOC deployments
- Enterprise-grade governance and reliability
- Kafka-compatible APIs and modern lakehouse architectures

“Flow” reflected our streaming roots, but it no longer fully reflects the breadth of what we deliver.

**Estuary represents the broader platform.**

In nature, an estuary is where streams converge, where real-time and historical data meet and become more powerful together. That metaphor now matches our product.

## What’s Changing?

The transition from Estuary Flow to Estuary includes:

- A simplified product name: **Estuary Flow → Estuary**
- Updated branding and visual identity
- Refined positioning around unified data integration

## What’s Not Changing?

Everything customers rely on today remains the same. There are no changes to:

- Your existing pipelines
- Your connectors and integrations
- Your pricing or contracts
- Platform functionality
- Support and customer success teams

Everything continues to operate exactly as before, just under a simplified name.

## What This Means for Customers & Partners

We are rolling out the transition carefully to ensure continuity across the ecosystem.

During the transition period:

- Existing URLs will continue to work and redirect appropriately.
- Documentation and product references are being updated.
- You may temporarily see references to **“Estuary (formerly Estuary Flow)”** during the transition period.
- APIs, integrations, and platform behavior remain unchanged

We are handling this carefully to ensure continuity across search, documentation, and partner ecosystems.

## The Bigger Picture

This rename reflects how customers are using Estuary today, not just to move streaming data, but to build unified, declarative data platforms that handle:

- Real-time analytics
- Operational data sync
- Lakehouse ingestion
- AI and ML pipelines
- Enterprise-scale data integration

The name Estuary reflects that direction.

While the name has evolved, our mission remains the same: making dependable, scalable data integration simpler for modern data teams.

## Thank You

To our customers, partners, and community: thank you for building with us.

The name has evolved.

The mission remains the same.

**Estuary**

Unified data integration for real-time and batch systems.
