Kafka connect setup to send record from Aurora using AWS MSK


I have to send records from Aurora/Mysql to MSK and from there to Elastic search service

Aurora -->Kafka-connect--->AWS MSK--->kafka connect --->Elastic search

The record in Aurora table structure is something like this
I think record will go to AWS MSK in this format.

"o36347-5d17-136a-9749-Oe46464",0,"NEW_CASE","WRLDCHK","o36347-5d17-136a-9749-Oe46464","<?xml version=""1.0"" encoding=""UTF-8"" standalone=""yes""?><caseCreatedPayload><batchDetails/>","CASE",08-JUL-17 10.02.32.217000000 PM,"TIME","UTC","ON","0a348753-5d1e-17a2-9749-3345,MN4,","","0a348753-5d1e-17af-9749-FGFDGDFV","EOUHEORHOE","2454-5d17-138e-9749-setwr23424","","","",,"","",""

So in order to consume by elastic search i need to use proper schema so schema registry i have to use.

My question

Question 1

How should i use schema registry for above type of message schema registry is required ?. Do i have to create JSON structure for this and if yes where i have keep that. More help required here to understand this ?

I have edited

vim /usr/local/confluent/etc/schema-registry/schema-registry.properties

Mentioned zookeper but i did not what is kafkastore.topic=_schema How to link this to custom schema .

Even i started and got this error

Caused by: java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: org.apache.kafka.common.errors.TimeoutException: Topic _schemas not present in metadata after 60000 ms.

Which i was expecting because i did not do anything about schema .

I do have jdbc connector installed and when i start i get below error

Invalid value java.sql.SQLException: No suitable driver found for jdbc:mysql://123871289-eruyre.cluster-ceyey.us-east-1.rds.amazonaws.com:3306/trf?user=admin&password=Welcome123 for configuration Couldn't open connection to jdbc:mysql://123871289-eruyre.cluster-ceyey.us-east-1.rds.amazonaws.com:3306/trf?user=admin&password=Welcome123

You can also find the above list of errors at the endpoint `/{connectorType}/config/validate`

Question 2 Can i create two onnector on one ec2 (jdbc and elastic serach one ).If yes do i have to start both in sepearte cli ?

Question 3 When i open vim /usr/local/confluent/etc/kafka-connect-jdbc/source-quickstart-sqlite.properties I see only propeties value like below

name=test-source-sqlite-jdbc-autoincrement
connector.class=io.confluent.connect.jdbc.JdbcSourceConnector
tasks.max=1
connection.url=jdbc:mysql://123871289-eruyre.cluster-ceyey.us-east-1.rds.amazonaws.com:3306/trf?user=admin&password=Welcome123
mode=incrementing
incrementing.column.name=id
topic.prefix=trf-aurora-fspaudit-

In the above properties file where i can mention schema name and table name?

Based on answer i am updating my configuration for Kafka connect JDBC

---------------start JDBC connect elastic search -----------------------------

wget /usr/local http://packages.confluent.io/archive/5.2/confluent-5.2.0-2.11.tar.gz -P ~/Downloads/
tar -zxvf ~/Downloads/confluent-5.2.0-2.11.tar.gz -C ~/Downloads/
sudo mv ~/Downloads/confluent-5.2.0 /usr/local/confluent

wget https://cdn.mysql.com//Downloads/Connector-J/mysql-connector-java-5.1.48.tar.gz
tar -xzf  mysql-connector-java-5.1.48.tar.gz
sudo mv mysql-connector-java-5.1.48 mv /usr/local/confluent/share/java/kafka-connect-jdbc

And then

vim /usr/local/confluent/etc/kafka-connect-jdbc/source-quickstart-sqlite.properties

Then i modified below properties

connection.url=jdbc:mysql://fdgfgdfgrter.us-east-1.rds.amazonaws.com:3306/trf
mode=incrementing
connection.user=admin
connection.password=Welcome123
table.whitelist=PANStatementInstanceLog
schema.pattern=dbo

Last i modified

vim /usr/local/confluent/etc/kafka/connect-standalone.properties

and here i modified below properties

bootstrap.servers=b-3.205147-ertrtr.erer.c5.ertert.us-east-1.amazonaws.com:9092,b-6.ertert-riskaudit.ertet.c5.kafka.us-east-1.amazonaws.com:9092,b-1.ertert-riskaudit.ertert.c5.kafka.us-east-1.amazonaws.com:9092
key.converter.schemas.enable=true
value.converter.schemas.enable=true
offset.storage.file.filename=/tmp/connect.offsets
offset.flush.interval.ms=10000
plugin.path=/usr/local/confluent/share/java

When i list topic i do not see any topic listed for table name .

Solution

  • schema registry is required ?

    No. You can enable schemas in json records. JDBC source can create them for you based on the table information

    value.converter=org.apache.kafka...JsonConverter 
    value.converter.schemas.enable=true
    

    Mentioned zookeper but i did not what is kafkastore.topic=_schema

    If you want to use Schema Registry, you should be using kafkastore.bootstrap.servers.with the Kafka address, not Zookeeper. So remove kafkastore.connection.url

    Please read the docs for explanations of all properties

    i did not do anything about schema .

    Doesn't matter. The schemas topic gets created when the Registry first starts

    Can i create two onnector on one ec2

    Yes (ignoring available JVM heap space). Again, this is detailed in the Kafka Connect documentation.

    Using standalone mode, you first pass the connect worker configuration, then up to N connector properties in one command

    Using distributed mode, you use the Kafka Connect REST API

    https://docs.confluent.io/current/connect/managing/configuring.html

    When i open vim /usr/local/confluent/etc/kafka-connect-jdbc/source-quickstart-sqlite.properties

    First of all, that's for Sqlite, not Mysql/Postgres. You don't need to use the quickstart files, they are only there for reference

    Again, all properties are well documented

    https://docs.confluent.io/current/connect/kafka-connect-jdbc/index.html#connect-jdbc

    I do have jdbc connector installed and when i start i get below error

    Here's more information about how you can debug that

    https://www.confluent.io/blog/kafka-connect-deep-dive-jdbc-source-connector/


    As stated before, I would personally suggest using Debezium/CDC where possible
