Apache Presto - KAFKA Connector

The Kafka Connector for Presto allows to access data from Apache Kafka using Presto.

Prerequisites

Download and install the latest version of the following Apache projects.

  • Apache ZooKeeper
  • Apache Kafka

Start ZooKeeper

Start ZooKeeper server using the following command.

$ bin/zookeeper-server-start.sh config/zookeeper.properties

Now, ZooKeeper starts port on 2181.

Start Kafka

Start Kafka in another terminal using the following command.

$ bin/kafka-server-start.sh config/server.properties

After kafka starts, it uses the port number 9092.

TPCH Data

Download tpch-kafka

$  curl -o kafka-tpch 
https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/de/softwareforge/kafka_tpch_0811/1.0/kafka_tpch_ 
0811-1.0.sh

Now you have downloaded the loader from Maven central using the above command. You will get a similar response as the following.

Then, make it executable using the following command,

$ chmod 755 kafka-tpch

Run tpch-kafka

Run the kafka-tpch program to preload a number of topics with tpch data using the following command.

Query

$ ./kafka-tpch load --brokers localhost:9092 --prefix tpch. --tpch-type tiny

Result

2016-07-13T16:15:52.083+0530 INFO main io.airlift.log.Logging Logging

……………………….

Now, Kafka tables customers,orders,supplier, etc., are loaded using tpch.

Add Config Settings

Let’s add the following Kafka connector configuration settings on Presto server.

connector.name = kafka  

kafka.nodes = localhost:9092  

kafka.table-names = tpch.customer,tpch.orders,tpch.lineitem,tpch.part,tpch.partsupp, 
tpch.supplier,tpch.nation,tpch.region  

kafka.hide-internal-columns = false

In the above configuration, Kafka tables are loaded using Kafka-tpch program.

Start Presto CLI

Start Presto CLI using the following command,

$ ./presto --server localhost:8080 --catalog kafka —schema tpch;

Here “tpch" is a schema for Kafka connector and you will receive a response as the following.

presto:tpch>

List Tables

Following query lists out all the tables in “tpch” schema.

Query

presto:tpch> show tables;

Result

  Table 
---------- 
 customer 
 lineitem 
 nation 
 orders
 part 
 partsupp 
 region 
 supplier

Describe Customer Table

Following query describes “customer” table.

Query

presto:tpch> describe customer;

Result

  Column           |  Type   |                   Comment

 _partition_id     | bigint  | Partition Id 
 _partition_offset | bigint  | Offset for the message within the partition 
 _segment_start    | bigint  | Segment start offset 
 _segment_end      | bigint  | Segment end offset 
 _segment_count    | bigint  | Running message count per segment 
 _key              | varchar | Key text
