Cloud Storage Sink Connector for Pulsar

The Cloud Storage sink connector supports exporting data from Pulsar topics to cloud storage (such as AWS S3 and Google GCS) either in Avro, JSON, Parquet or other formats. According to your environment, the Cloud Storage sink connector can guarantee exactly-once support for exporting data to cloud storage.

Installation

There are two ways to install the Cloud Storage sink connector.

  • Install the the Cloud Storage sink connector through the NAR file.
  • Install the the Cloud Storage sink connector from the source code.

To build the the Cloud Storage sink connector from the source code, follow these steps.

  1. Clone the project from GitHub to your local.

    git clone https://github.com/streamnative/pulsar-io-cloud-storage.git
    cd pulsar-io-cloud-storage
  2. Build the project.

    mvn clean install -DskipTests

    You can find the NAR file in the following directory.

    ./pulsar-io-cloud-storage/target/pulsar-io-cloud-storage-${version}.nar

Configuration

The Cloud Storage sink connector supports the following properties.

Configure Cloud Storage sink connector

Before using the Cloud Storage sink connector, you need to create a configuration file through one of the following methods.

  • JSON

    {
       "tenant": "public",
       "namespace": "default",
       "name": "cloud-storage-sink",
       "inputs": [
          "user-avro-topic"
       ],
       "archive": "connectors/pulsar-io-cloud-storage-0.0.1.nar",
       "parallelism": 1,
       "configs": {
          "provider": "aws-s3",
          "accessKeyId": "accessKeyId",
          "secretAccessKey": "secretAccessKey",
          "role": "none",
          "roleSessionName": "none",
          "bucket": "testBucket",
          "region": "local",
          "endpoint": "us-standard",
          "formatType": "parquet",
          "partitionerType": "time",
          "timePartitionPattern": "yyyy-MM-dd",
          "timePartitionDuration": "1d",
          "batchSize": 10,
          "batchTimeMs": 1000
       }
    }
  • YAML

    tenant: "public"
    namespace: "default"
    name: "Cloud Storage-sink"
    inputs: 
      - "user-avro-topic"
    archive: "connectors/pulsar-io-cloud-storage-0.0.1.nar"
    parallelism: 1
    
    configs:
      provider: "aws-s3",
      accessKeyId: "accessKeyId"
      secretAccessKey: "secretAccessKey"
      role: "none"
      roleSessionName: "none"
      bucket: "testBucket"
      region: "local"
      endpoint: "us-standard"
      formatType: "parquet"
      partitionerType: "time"
      timePartitionPattern: "yyyy-MM-dd"
      timePartitionDuration: "1d"
      batchSize: 10
      batchTimeMs: 1000

Data format types

Cloud Storage Sink Connector provides multiple output format options, including JSON, Avro, Bytes, or Parquet. The default format is JSON. With current implementation, there are some limitations for different formats:

This table lists the Pulsar Schema types supported by the writers.

Pulsar Schema Writer: Avro Writer: JSON Writer: Parquet Writer: Bytes
Primitive ✔ *
Avro
Json
Protobuf **
ProtobufNative ✔ ***

*: The JSON writer will try to convert the data with a String or Bytes schema to JSON-format data if convertable.

**: The Protobuf schema is based on the Avro schema. It uses Avro as an intermediate format, so it may not provide the best effort conversion.

***: The ProtobufNative record holds the Protobuf descriptor and the message. When writing to Avro format, the connector uses avro-protobuf to do the conversion.

This table lists the support of withMetadata configurations for different writer formats:

Writer Format withMetadata
Avro
JSON
Parquet ✔ *
Bytes

*: When using Parquet with PROTOBUF_NATIVE format, the connector will write the messages with DynamicMessage format. When withMetadata is set to true, the connector will add __message_metadata__ to the messages with PulsarIOCSCProtobufMessageMetadata format.

For example, if a message User has the following schema:

syntax = "proto3";
message User {
 string name = 1;
 int32 age = 2;
}

When withMetadata is set to true, the connector will write the message DynamicMessage with the following schema:

syntax = "proto3";
message PulsarIOCSCProtobufMessageMetadata {
 map<string, string> properties = 1;
 string schema_version = 2;
 string message_id = 3;
}
message User {
 string name = 1;
 int32 age = 2;
 PulsarIOCSCProtobufMessageMetadata __message_metadata__ = 3;
}

By default, when the connector receives a message with a non-supported schema type, the connector will fail the message. If you want to skip the non-supported messages, you can set skipFailedMessages to true.

Dead-letter topics

To use a dead-letter topic, you need to set skipFailedMessages to false, and set --max-redeliver-count and --dead-letter-topic when submit the connector with the pulsar-admin CLI tool. For more info about dead-letter topics, see the Pulsar documentation. If a message fails to be sent to the Cloud Storage and there is a dead-letter topic, the connector will send the message to the dead-letter topic.

Usage

  1. Prepare the AWS Cloud Storage service. In this example, we use Cloud Storagemock as an example.

    docker pull apachepulsar/s3mock:latest
    docker run -p 9090:9090 -e initialBuckets=pulsar-integtest apachepulsar/s3mock:latest
    
  2. Put the pulsar-io-cloud-storage-2.5.1.nar in the Pulsar connector catalog.

    cp pulsar-io-cloud-storage-2.5.1.nar $PULSAR_HOME/connectors/pulsar-io-cloud-storage-2.5.1.nar
    
  3. Start Pulsar in the standalone mode.

    $PULSAR_HOME/bin/pulsar standalone
    
  4. Run the Cloud Storage sink connector locally.

    $PULSAR_HOME/bin/pulsar-admin sink localrun --sink-config-file cloud-storage-sink-config.yaml
    
  5. Send Pulsar messages. Currently, Avro or JSON mode supports formatType json, avro, parquet. No schema mode can only use bytes formatType.

      try (
                 PulsarClient pulsarClient = PulsarClient.builder()
                         .serviceUrl("pulsar://localhost:6650")
                         .build();
                 Producer<TestRecord> producer = pulsarClient.newProducer(Schema.AVRO(TestRecord.class))
                         .topic("public/default/test-parquet-avro")
                         .create();
                 ) {
                 List<TestRecord> testRecords = Arrays.asList(
                         new TestRecord("key1", 1, null),
                         new TestRecord("key2", 1, new TestRecord.TestSubRecord("aaa"))
                 );
                 for (TestRecord record : testRecords) {
                     producer.send(record);
                 }
             }
  6. Validate Cloud Storage data.

    To get the path, you can use the jclould to verify the file, as shown below.

    Properties overrides = new Properties();
    overrides.put(“jclouds.s3.virtual-host-buckets”, “false”);
    BlobStoreContext blobStoreContext = ContextBuilder.newBuilder(“aws-s3”)
            .credentials(
                    “accessKeyId”,
                    “secretAccessKey”
            )
            .endpoint(“http://localhost:9090”) // replace to s3mock url
            .overrides(overrides)
            .buildView(BlobStoreContext.class);
    BlobStore blobStore = blobStoreContext.getBlobStore();
    final long sequenceId = FunctionCommon.getSequenceId(message.getMessageId());
    final String path = “public/default/test-parquet-avro” + File.separator + “2020-09-14" + File.separator + sequenceId + “.parquet”;
    final boolean blobExists = blobStore.blobExists(“testBucket”, path);
    Assert.assertTrue(“the sink record does not exist”, blobExists);

    You can find the data in your testBucket bucket. The path is something like public/default/test-parquet-avro/2020-09-14/1234.parquet. The path consists of three parts, the basic part of the topic, partition information, and format suffix.

    • Basic part of topic: public/default/test-parquet-avro/ This part consists of the name of the tenant, namespace, and the input topic.
    • Partition information: 2020-09-14/${messageSequenceId} The date is generated based on the partitionerType parameter in the configuration. And the ${messageSequenceId} is generated by FunctionCommon.getSequenceId(message.getMessageId()).
    • Format suffix: .parquet This part is generated based on the formatType parameter in the configuration.

Permissions

AWS S3 permission policies

The suggested permission policies for AWS S3 are:

  • s3:AbortMultipartUpload
  • s3:CreateBucket
  • s3:PutObject

If you do not want to provide region in the configuration, you should enable s3:GetBucketLocation permission policy as well.

Troubleshooting

Sink flushing only after batchTimeMs elapses

There is a scenario where the sink is only flushing whenever the batchTimeMs has elapsed, even though there are many messages waiting to be processed. The reason for this is that the sink will only acknowledge messages after they are flushed to cloud storage but the broker stops sending messages when it reaches a certain limit of unacknowledged messages. If this limit is lower or close to batchSize, the sink never receives enough messages to trigger a flush based on the amount of messages. In this case please ensure the maxUnackedMessagesPerConsumer set in the broker configuration is sufficiently larger than the batchSize setting of the sink.
