Producing Data for Kafka

In addition to consuming data from Kafka, Vertica can produce data for Kafka. Stream the following data from Vertica for consumption by other Kafka consumers:

  • Vertica anayltics results. Use KafkaExport to export Vertica tables and queries.
  • Health and performance data from Data Collector tables. Create push-based notifiers to send this data for consumption for third-party monitoring tools.
  • Ad hoc messages. Use NOTIFY to signal that tasks such as stored procedures are complete.
