Summary
Kafka is a streaming platform that enables the streaming of records to and from data centers. Couchbase has created a Kafka connector that allows for easy use of Couchbase as a source or sink in Kafka-based architectures. A tutorial was created on using Kafka with Couchbase, focusing on streaming data from a MySQL database into Couchbase. The tutorial involved setting up Docker images for Zookeeper, Kafka, and MySQL, creating a custom Docker image for the Couchbase Kafka connector, and configuring Kafka Connect to use MySQL as a source and Couchbase as a sink. After completing these steps, data can flow from the MySQL database into the Couchbase bucket automatically.
