Summary

DataStax Enterprise (DSE) is a popular choice among customers like Capital One, Delta Airlines, and Macy's due to its Apache Cassandra® foundation which provides limitless scale and the most battle-tested geo-replication capabilities on the market. The new direction for the Verified Gold Apache Kafka Connector enables bidirectional functionality as both a sink and source for Kafka. This feature is particularly useful in building microservice architectures, allowing multi-data center/cloud replication of Cassandra-backed systems of record. The connector leverages the powerful Kafka Connect framework to distribute tasks across multiple worker nodes and processes, making it easy to scale as workload requirements change. With this new functionality, users can seamlessly move data between DSE and Kafka in event-driven architectures, enabling globally synchronized microservices.
