🎄 Twelve Days of SMT 🎄 - Day 7: TimestampRouter

Read Original

This technical article details the TimestampRouter Single Message Transform (SMT) in Kafka Connect. It shows how to configure the transform to append a timestamp to a topic name, enabling time-based partitioning of data in sink connectors like JDBC. The article includes configuration examples, a demo using a MySQL sink, and discusses the source of the timestamp (message metadata vs. payload).
