GreptimeDB Kafka Ingestion Demo

This docker-compose file demos how to ingest log data from Kafka to GreptimeDB.

It uses Vector as Kafka consumer to bridge Kafka and GreptimeDB. Vector is a observability data pipeline that has built-in support for Kafka as source and GreptimeDB as sinks.

How to run this demo

Ensure you have git, docker, docker-compose and mysql client installed. To run this demo:

git clone https://github.com/GreptimeTeam/demo-scene.git
cd demo-scene/kafka-ingestion
docker compose up

It can take a while for the first run to pull down images and also build necessary components.

You can access GreptimeDB using mysql client. Just run mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -P 4002 to connect to the database and use SQL query like SHOW TABLES as a start.

mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -P 4002
Welcome to the MySQL monitor.  Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 8
Server version: 8.4.2 Greptime

How it works

The topology is illustrated in this diagram. One-shot containers are ignored.

flowchart LR
  greptimedb[(GreptimeDB)]

  message_producer --> kafka
  kafka --> vector
  vector --> greptimedb
Loading

All the generated logs are stored in GreptimeDB using a pipeline definition at pipeline.yaml. Basically, it extracts timestamp and message fields from the data Vector sents to GreptimeDB and stores them as table columns.

Once greptimedb starts, we use an init container init_pipeline to send a http post call to store the pipeline definition named as demo_pipeline.

In the vector configuration, we specify the pipeline name demo_pipeline and table name demo_logs (you can customize it).

To learn more about logs and pipeline definition, see our docs.

Note

If you are going to restart this demo, press Ctrl-C and remember to call docker compose down to clean up the data before you run docker compose up again.
