• Financial data stored in RDBMS

• Social media data, web logs, Google analytics, etc all in
various formats

• Bring it all together for analysis

‣ Marketing campaign effect on sales

Kafka - How is it used?
14
• Pure Event Streams

• System Metrics

• Derived Streams

• Hadoop Data Loads / Data Publishing

• Application Logs

• Database Changes

- Log Compaction
- Data cleansing
Image source: confluent.io

Let’s Jump Right In
15
• An example…near and dear to my heart 
 
 
One single view of the Oracle Data Integrator logs! 
- Oracle Data Integrator session logs stored in the repository
- ODI Agent logs are text based log files
- To see the full picture of your ODI environment, they must be
combined

Oracle GoldenGate for Big Data - we talked about this…
17

ODI Agent Logs to Kafka via Logstash
18

Extract from the ODI Repository with GoldenGate 12c
19
• Prepare the database

• Setup GoldenGate for Oracle Database

- Install and configure
• Setup Manager, Extract and Pump parameter files

• Add Extract and Pump process groups

• Start!

26

Stream ODI Agent Logs to Kafka via Logstash
27
• Application log processing is a standard use for Kafka

- Many approaches to extract logs
• Logstash

- Part of the Elastic (formerly ELK) stack
- Robin Moffatt blogged —> http://ritt.md/kafka-elk
- Producer configuration for Kafka

Logstash to Kafka - Setup and Startup
28
• Startup Zookeeper

- Already installed on Big Data Lite
• Set Kafka server.properties

- Broker ID
- Number of partitions
- Log retention period
- Zookeeper connection
• Start Kafka

Setup Logstash Configuration File
29
• Configuration File

• Start Logstash

ODI Agent Logs to Kafka!
30
• Start the Kafka Console Consumer - delivered with Kafka

• Start the ODI Agent and…messages!

ODI Agent Logs to Kafka!
31

GoldenGate Transactions to Kafka
32

Oracle GoldenGate for Big Data
33
• Kafka one of many handlers

- HDFS, HBase, Flume
• Pluggable Formatters

- Convert trail file transactions to alternate format
- Avro, delimited text, JSON, XML
• Metadata Provider

- Handles mapping of source to target columns that differ in structure/name
- Similar to SOURCEDEF file in GoldenGate
- Avro or Hive

Oracle GoldenGate for Big Data - Kafka Handler
34
• Standard GoldenGate Extract / Pump processes

- We just set this up
• Replicat parameter file & process group

• Kakfa Handler configuration

• Kafka Producer properties

- Note: Kafka 0.9.0+ now certified with GoldenGate for Big Data
12.2.1.1

GoldenGate and Kafka…Prerequisites
35
• Zookeeper & Kafka up and running

• Add topic to broker up front vs dynamically

- Option to create a topic per table (12.2.0.1.1)
• Kafka Handler must have access to broker server

• Kafka libraries must match Kafka version

GoldenGate and Kafka…Replicat Parameters
36

GoldenGate and Kafka…Kafka Handler Properties
37
• Properties allow communication between the GoldenGate
adapter and Kafka

38
• gg.handlerlist = kafkahandler

• gg.handler.kafkahandler.type = kafka

• gg.handler.kafkahandler.KafkaProducerConfigFile = kafka_producer.properties

• gg.handler.kafkahandler.TopicName = odirepo

- Kafka topic name

• gg.handler.kafkahandler.format = json

- Pluggable Formatter - Avro recommended for Kafka…

• gg.handler.kafkahandler.BlockingSend = true|false
• gg.handler.kafkahandler.includeTokens = true|false
• gg.handler.kafkahandler.mode = tx

- Transaction vs Operation mode

GoldenGate and Kafka…One Topic Per Table
39
• gg.handler.kafkahandler.topicPartitioning=table

- Option to split schema into one topic per table

- Can be created dynamically

• gg.handler.kafkahandler.mode=op

- Operation mode to track individual table operations

40
• goldengate.userexit.timestamp = utc

• goldengate.userexit.writers = javawriter

• javawriter.stats.display = TRUE

• javawriter.stats.full = TRUE

• gg.log = log4j

• gg.log.level = INFO

• gg.report.time = 30sec

• gg.classpath = dirprm/:/u01/kafka/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/libs/*:

- Location of the Kafka libraries

• javawriter.bootoptions = -Xmx512m -Xms32m -Djava.class.path=ggjava/ggjava.jar

GoldenGate and Kafka…Kafka Producer Configuration
41
• Access to the Kafka producer configuration parameters
More on this later

GoldenGate and Kafka…Startup
42
• Create a topic in Kakfa

• Add Replicat process group to GoldenGate on target

• Start Kafka console consumer

• Start GoldenGate extract/pump on source, replicat on target

GoldenGate and Kafka Integration Complete!
43

Schemas…
44
• Schema automatically created

- Stored in <ogg_home>/dirdef directory
- Based on gg.handler.kafkahandler.format setting

GoldenGate Big Data Adapter - What to Think About
45
• GoldenGate could be a single point of failure

- Kafka is a fault-tolerant, distributed system
• Source transactions may end up larger than expected

- max.request.size
• Need for speed?

- batch.size
- linger.ms
- BlockingSend = false

Why GoldenGate with Kafka?
46
• GoldenGate

- …is non-invasive
- …has checkpoints for recovery
- …moves data quickly
- …is easy to setup

In conclusion
47
• The new data challenge, not quite as challenging with Kafka

- Kafka throughout
