-----------------------------------------
Hi Tugba,
How is the Kafka set up and research going?
As you are probably aware, planning what the connector needs to do is most of
this project, and understanding Kafka enough to work with it is the first step.

> Kafka is a distributed, partitioned, replicated commit log service. It
> provides the functionality of a messaging system, but with a unique design. A
> single Kafka broker can handle hundreds of megabytes of reads and writes per
> second from thousands of clients.
> Apache Kafka is being used for a number of uses cases. One of them is to use
> Kafka as a feeding system for streaming BigData processes, both in Apache
> Spark or Hadoop environment. A Kafka output connector could be used for
> streaming or dispatching crawled documents or metadata and put them in a
> BigData processing pipeline
