The growing list of over 45 technology providers includes: Amplitude, AppsFlyer, Branch, Foursquare, Looker, mParticle, Mixpanel, and Segment.

"At Looker we're focused on empowering people with data by creating a single source of truth for everyone in a company no matter their technical background," said Keenan Rice, VP of Alliances and Channels at Looker.

Additionally, a new partnership with Google Cloud allows Braze customers to instantly stream data into Google Cloud through Braze Currents. The multi-cloud capabilities that Braze offers–now with Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure–allow for expanded data agility and freedom of choice for customers. Braze Currents exported over 150 billion engagement events to partners this year alone.

"As such, we're pleased to announce our partnership with Braze as a further step in supplying our mutual customers with more ways to engage users and drive growth through a deep understanding of user behavior."
