Kafka Connect
Agenda
 What (is Kafka Connect)
 The World of Data
 Why (do we need it) Kafka Connect
 When (will we consider using) Kafka Connect
 How Kafka Connect
 Setting up the infrastructure
 Interacting with Kafka Connect
 Implementing a custom source connector

What is Kafka
Connect
 A Kafka integration tool
 Allows importing data into Kafka
 And exporting data out of Kafka
 Runs as a cluster of one or more system processes
 Each such process is referred to as a Worker
 Workers are grouped together in Worker Groups
 Connector Instances are managed by theConnect cluster
 Tasks are configured by connectors and are distributed across workers
 Data in being pulled by SourceTasks (configured by Source Connectors)
 Or Pushed by Sink Tasks (configured by Sink Connectors)

Why KafkaConnect
 In one word
 Integration
 Of different data oriented technologies
 Of a multitude of changing APIs and communication protocols
 In more than one word
 Fault tolerant, scalable Integration with various technologies
When Kafka
Connect
 Implementing a Kafka Producer or Consumer within the
desired data source / target is impossible or expensive (e.g.
the source code is unavailable)
 Even when we can modify the source code of the source /
target system – but prefer to have a scalable and fault tolerant
integration with it (e.g. not to be limited in bandwidth by the
direct connection between the technology and our Kafka
cluster).
