The Challenge: Streaming Data Pipelines

Kafka Connect

Single Message Transforms for Kafka Connect

Modify events before storing in Kafka:• Mask sensitive information

• Add identifiers• Tag events

• Store lineage • Remove unnecessary columns

Modify events going out of Kafka:• Route high priority events to

faster data stores• Direct events to different

Elasticsearch indexes• Cast data types to match

destination

• Remove unnecessary columns

Where Single Message Transforms Fit In

9

Built-in Transformations

• InsertField – Add a field using either static data or record metadata• ReplaceField – Filter or rename fields• MaskField – Replace field with valid null value for the type (0, empty string, etc)• ValueToKey – Set the key to one of the value’s fields• HoistField – Wrap the entire event as a single field inside a Struct or a Map• ExtractField – Extract a specific field from Struct and Map and include only this field in results• SetSchemaMetadata – modify the schema name or version• TimestampRouter – Modify the topic of a record based on original topic and timestamp. Useful

when using a sink that needs to write to different tables or indexes based on timestamps• RegexpRouter – modify the topic of a record based on original topic, replacement string and a

regular expression

11

Why only single messages?

• Delivery guarantees!• Always provide at least once semantics• For supported connectors, provide exactly once semantics

• No additional complication: transformations happens inline with import/export

12

When should I use each tool?

Kafka Connect & Single Message Transforms• Simple, message at a time• Transformation can be performed inline• Transformation does not interact with

external systems

Kafka Streams• Complex transformations including

• Aggregations• Windowing• Joins

• Transformed data stored back in Kafka, enabling reuse

• Write, deploy, and monitor a Java application

13

Conclusion

Single Message Transforms in Kafka Connect• Lightweight transformation of individual messages• Configuration-only data pipelines• Pluggable, with lots of built-in transformations
