Cloudera SQL Stream Builder (SSB) Released!

CSA 1.3.0 is now available with *Apache Flink 1.12 and SQL Stream Builder! * Check out this white paper for some details. You can get full details on the Stream Processing and Analytics available from Cloudera here.

This is awesome way to query Kafka topics with continuous SQL that is deployed to scalable Flink nodes in YARN or K8. We can also easily define functions in JavaScript to enhance, enrich and augment our data streams. No Java to write, no heavy deploys or build scripts, we can build, test and deploy these advanced streaming applications all from your secure browser interface.

Example SQL Stream Builder Run

We login then build our Kafka data source(s), unless they were predefined.

Next we build a few virtual table sources for Kafka topics we are going to read from. If they are JSON we can let SSB determine the schema for us. Or we can connect to the Cloudera Schema Registry for it to determine the schema for AVRO data.

We can then define virtual table syncs to Kafka or webhooks.

We then run a SQL query with some easy to determine parameters and if we like the results we can create a materialized view.
