Kafka Proto Parquet Writer

Kafka proto parquet writer reads records from a Kafka topic and writes them as parquet files. Parquet files can be created on local file system or HDFS. It can write records in multiple threads. As writing to single parquet file can not be done concurrently, each threads writes to a separate file.

Kafka proto parquet writer uses Smart Commit Kafka Consumer for reading records from kafka.

At least once delivery is guaranteed because the consumer will be notified of a record's ack just if it is written in a parquet file and successfully flushed to the disk.

Each thread creates new parquet files when certain criteria have been met in output file. Currently these policies are supported for closing a file and opening a new one:

File Size: When size of the parquet file reaches a threshold
Open Time: When a file has been open for certain amount of time

A file is closed when any of configured threshold has been reached.

Sample Usage

Map<String, Object>  consumerConfig = ImmutableMap.<String, Object>builder()
        .put(ConsumerConfig.GROUP_ID_CONFIG, "sample-groupId"
        .put(ConsumerConfig.KEY_DESERIALIZER_CLASS_CONFIG, StringDeserializer.class.getName())
        .put(ConsumerConfig.BOOTSTRAP_SERVERS_CONFIG, "kafka-sever:9092")
        .put(ConsumerConfig.AUTO_OFFSET_RESET_CONFIG, "latest")
        .build();


KafkaProtoParquetWriter<SampleMessage> writer = new Builder<SampleMessage>()
        .consumerConfig(consumerConfig)
        .kafkaTopicName("topic")
        .targetDir("/tmp/parquetFiles")
        .protoClass(SampleMessage.class)
        .parser(SampleMessage.PARSER) // Use sampleMessage.parser() instead if it is produced by protobuf v3 and later.
        .build();
writer.start();
