Flink CDC is a streaming data integration tool

Flink CDC is a distributed data integration tool for real time data and batch data. Flink CDC brings the simplicity and elegance of data integration via YAML to describe the data movement and transformation in a Data Pipeline.

The Flink CDC prioritizes efficient end-to-end data integration and offers enhanced functionalities such as full database synchronization, sharding table synchronization, schema evolution and data transformation.

Getting Started

1. Prepare a Apache Flink cluster and set up FLINK_HOME environment variable.
2. Download Flink CDC tar, unzip it and put jars of pipeline connector to Flink lib directory.
3. Create a YAML file to describe the data source and data sink, the following example synchronizes all tables under MySQL app_db database to Doris :

  source:
     type: mysql
     name: MySQL Source
     hostname: 127.0.0.1
     port: 3306
     username: admin
     password: pass
     tables: adb.\.*
     server-id: 5401-5404
  
  sink:
    type: doris
    name: Doris Sink
    fenodes: 127.0.0.1:8030
    username: root
    password: pass
  
  pipeline:
     name: MySQL to Doris Pipeline
     parallelism: 4

4. Submit pipeline job using flink-cdc.sh script.

 bash bin/flink-cdc.sh /path/mysql-to-doris.yaml

5. View job execution status through Flink WebUI or downstream database.
