What are my sink options with Apache Kafka

2
  • Option 1: Routine Load
  • Option 2: Kafka Sink

Kafka Sink Options

  • Option 2A: StarRocks Kafka Connector which uses REST / Stream Load
  • Option 2B: Aiven JDBC Connector which uses JDBC

It’s preferred to use option 2A because it’s 1) event driven. 2) uses the Stream Load interface behind the scenes which means the data goes directly to BE and doesn’t need FE processing.
