How to save streaming data to Azure data lake? - azure

I am using Apache flink for Streaming .I am taking data from Apache Kafka as a stream through flink and do some possessing and save the resulted stream in Azure Data lake.Is there any connector available in flink to dump the stream data in Azure data lake?

Flink supports all file systems that implement org.apache.hadoop.fs.FileSystemas noted here: https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-release-0.8/example_connectors.html.
So you should be able to set it up to output data to Azure Data Lake Store. Here is a blog that shows how to connect Hadoop to Azure Data Lake Store. The same approach in theory should work for Flink. https://medium.com/azure-data-lake/connecting-your-own-hadoop-or-spark-to-azure-data-lake-store-93d426d6a5f4

How to connect Spark Structured Streaming to blob/file creation events from Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 or Blob Storage

I am new to Spark Structured Streaming and its concepts. Was reading through the documentation for Azure HDInsight cluster here and it's mentioned that the structured streaming applications run on HDInsight cluster and connects to streaming data from .. Azure Storage, or Azure Data Lake Storage. I was looking at how to get started with the streaming listening to new file created events from the storage or ADLS. The spark documentation does provide an example, but i am looking for how to tie up streaming with the blob/file creation event, so that I can store the file content in a queue from my spark job. It will be great if anyone can help me out on this.
happy to help you on this, but can you be more precise with the requirement. Yes, you can run the Spark Structured Streaming jobs on Azure HDInsight. Basically mount the azure blob storage to cluster and then you can directly read the data available in the blob.
val df = spark.read.option("multiLine", true).json("PATH OF BLOB")
Azure Data Lake Gen2 (ADL2) has been released for Hadoop 3.2 only. Open Source Spark 2.4.x supports Hadoop 2.7 and if you compile it yourself Hadoop 3.1. Spark 3 will support Hadoop 3.2, but it's not released yet (only preview release).
Databricks offers support for ADL2 natively.
My solution to tackle this problem was to manually patch and compile Spark 2.4.4 with Hadoop 3.2 to be able to use the ADL2 libs from Microsoft.

How to write into RabbitMQ from Azure databricks?

I am currently learning to use RabbitMQ. I am trying to publish a message to RabbitMQ from Azure Databricks using pyspark. Any idea about how would that be achievable?
Unfortunately, RabbitMQ is not supported as a source in Azure Databricks.
Azure Databricks - Streaming Data Sources and Sinks
Structured Streaming has built-in support for a number of streaming data sources and sinks (for example, files and Kafka) and programmatic interfaces that allow you to specify arbitrary data writers.
Apache Kafka
Azure Event Hubs
Delta Lake Tables
Read and Write Streaming Avro Data with DataFrames
Write to Arbitrary Data Sinks
Optimized Azure Blob Storage File Source with Azure Queue Storage
As per my research, I have found a third-party tool named "Panoply" which integrate Databricks and RabbitMQ using Panoply.
Hope this helps.

How to configure confluent kafka with azur SQL with CDC approach?

The main thing is i want to connect Azur SQL to confluent kafka using CDC approach and then i want to take that data into s3.
There are various ways of getting data out of a database into Kafka. You'll need to check what Azure SQL supports but this talk (slides) goes into the options and examples, usually built using Kafka Connect.
To stream data to S3 from Kafka use Kafka Connect (which is part of Apache Kafka), using the S3 sink connector which is detailed in this article.
To see an example of database-S3 pipelines with transformations included have a look at this blog post.

How to read contents of the file in AzureDataLake continuously in the flink streaming?

I am using flink streaming to read the data from the file in AzureDataLake store.Is there any connector available to read the data from the file stored in Azure Data Lake continuously as the file is updated.How to do it?
Azure Data Lake Store (ADLS) supports REST API interface that is compatible with HDFS and is documented here. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/datalakestore/webhdfs-filesystem-apis.
Currently there are no APIs or connectors available that poll ADLS and notify/read-data as the files/folders are updated. This is something that you could implement in a custom connector using the APIs provided above. Your connector would need to poll the ADLS account/folder on a recurring basis to identify changes.
