Kafka and Cassandra


We need to use the kafka-connect-cassandra which is published on Maven Central by Tuplejump.

It can be defined as a dependency in the build file. For example, with SBT:

libraryDependencies += "com.tuplejump" %% "kafka-connect-cassandra" % "0.0.7"

This code polls Cassandra with a specific query. Using this, data can be fetched from Cassandra in two modes:

  • Bulk
  • Timestamp based

The modes change automatically based on the query. For example:

Bulk:

SELECT * FROM userlog; 
 

Timestamp based:

SELECT * FROM userlog WHERE ts > previousTime(); 
SELECT * FROM userlog WHERE ts = currentTime(); 
SELECT * FROM userlog WHERE ts >= previousTime() AND  ts <= currentTime() ;  
 

Here, previousTime() and currentTime() are replaced before fetching the data.
