Analytics on Bare Metal: Xenon and Kafka Connect

The Apache Kafka connector based on Xenon, a high-performance storage and analytics engine, is being showcased for streaming data from Kafka into Xenon, leveraging the Kafka Connect framework. Xenon is designed to manage large datasets efficiently with low latency and scalability, achieving optimal I/O performance and compute efficiency through just-in-time compilation and direct I/O to PCIe SSDs. The connector offers features such as multi-tenancy via a connector interface to Apache Spark, robust data formats including Avro and JSON, and high-performance capabilities demonstrated by ingesting 470GB of data at 3.5 million messages per second on a commodity server with NVMe SSDs for storage.
