Hi everyone, Wiki: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CASSANDRA/CEP-44%3A+Kafka+integration+for+Cassandra+CDC+using+Sidecar
We would like to propose this CEP for adoption by the community. CDC is a common technique in databases but right now there is no out-of-the-box solution to do this easily and at scale with Cassandra. Our proposal is to build a fully-fledged solution into the Apache Cassandra Sidecar. This comes with a number of benefits: - Sidecar is an official part of the existing Cassandra eco-system. - Sidecar runs co-located with Cassandra instances and so scales with the cluster size. - Sidecar can access the underlying Cassandra database to store CDC configuration and the CDC state in a special table. - Running in the Sidecar does not require additional external resources to run. The core CDC module we anticipate will be pluggable and re-usable, it is available for review here: https://github.com/apache/cassandra-analytics/pull/87. The remaining Sidecar code will follow. As a reminder, please keep the discussion here on the dev list vs. in the wiki, as we’ve found it easier to manage via email. Sincerely, James Berragan Bernardo Botella Corbi Yifan Cai Jyothsna Konisa
