دانلود کتاب راهنمای کافکا کانکت – Kafka Connect

Connect is one of the components of the Apache Kafka project. While you don’t need to be a Kafka expert to use Connect, it’s useful to have a basic understanding of the main concepts in order to build reliable data pipelines. In this chapter, we will give a quick overview of Kafka and you will learn the basics in order to fully understand the rest of this book. (If you already have a good understanding of Kafka, you can skip this chapter and go directly to Chapter 3.) We will explain what Kafka is, its use cases and briefly introduce some of its inner workings. Finally we will discuss the different Kafka clients, including Kafka Streams, and show you how to run them against a local Kafka cluster. If you want a deeper dive into Apache Kafka, we recommend you take a look at the book “Kafka, the Definitive Guide”.
