Kafka Connect is part of Apache Kafka® and provides a framework for streaming data into and out of Kafka from and to external systems. The framework provides reusable and common code, allowing the developer of a Connector to focus on the logic required to connect to an external system and convert data to and from Kafka.
Connect also provides a mechanism to write-once, package then deploy multiple times, by allowing Connectors to be packaged and externally configured.
Confluent provides and supports many connectors for common external systems. Included in these is a HTTP Sink Connector, which can send a HTTP/REST request for each message written to a Kafka topic.
In this session you will become familiar with the Confluent HTTP Sink Connector, and learn how to start writing your own connectors to source and sink data from and to HTTP/REST external systems into Confluent.
