Added info to readme
Kafka provides an integration point through Source and Sink Connectors. The GeodeKafkaSource allows Geode to be a data source for Kafka The GeodeKafkaSink allows Geode to consume data off of topics and store data from Kafka.
Kafka is installed and is up and running. See the Kafka quickstart for more info: Kafka Quickstart
Installation of the connector is similar in process to other Kafka Connectors. For now, we will follow the guide for Manual Installation In summary, we will use the standalone worker for this example.
Explode a zip file or build into a known and Kafka accessible location
Modify the connect-standalone.properties,
Create and modify connect-geode-source.properties file //TODO
Create and modify connect-geode-sink.properties files //TODO
Run bin/connect-standalone.sh config/connect-standalone.properties config/connect-geode-source.properties config/connect-geode-sink.properties
Property | Required | Description | Default |
---|---|---|---|
locators | yes | A comma separated string of locators that configure which locators to connect to | “localhost[10334]” |
Property | Required | Description | Default |
---|---|---|---|
topicToRegions | yes | A comma separated list of “one topic to many regions” bindings. Each binding is surrounded by brackets. For example “[topicName:regionName], [anotherTopic: regionName, anotherRegion]” | None. This is required to be set in the source connector properties |
nullValuesMeanRemove | no | If set to true, when topics send a SinkRecord with a null value, we will convert to an operation similar to region.remove instead of putting a null value into the region | true |
The topicToRegions property allows us to create mappings between topics and regions. A single one-to-one mapping would look similar to “[topic:region]” A one-to-many mapping can be made by comma separating the regions, for example “[topic:region1,region2]” This is equivalent to both regions being consumers of the topic.
Property | Required | Description | Default |
---|---|---|---|
regionToTopics | yes | A comma separated list of “one region to many topics” mappings. Each mapping is surrounded by brackets. For example "[regionName:topicName], “[anotherRegion: topicName, anotherTopic]” | None. This is required to be set in the source connector properties |
geodeConnectorBatchSize | no | Maximum number of records to return on each poll | 100 |
geodeConnectorQueueSize | no | Maximum number of entries in the connector queue before backing up all Geode cq listeners sharing the task queue | 10000 |
loadEntireRegion | no | Determines if we should queue up all entries that currently exist in the region. This allows us to copy existing region data. Will be replayed whenever a task needs to re-register a cq | true |
durableClientIdPrefix | no | Prefix string for tasks to append to when registering as a durable client. If empty string, will not register as a durable client | "" |
durableClientTimeout | no | How long in milliseconds to persist values in Geode's durable queue before the queue is invalidated | 60000 |
cqPrefix | no | Prefix string to identify Connector cq's on a Geode server | cqForGeodeKafka |
The regionToTopics property allows us to create mappings between regions and topics. A single one-to-one mapping would look similar to “[region:topic]” A one-to-many mapping can be made by comma separating the topics, for example “[region:topic1,topic2]” This is equivalent to the region be a producer for both topics
Possible Upcoming Featured: Formatter - Possibly a JSON to and from PDX formatter Security - security settings for Geode Dynamic Region creation - Dynamically create regions when topics are created (filter what names to look for and what types of regions to create) Allow a single worker to connect to multiple Geode Clusters?
