19. Kafka Data Store

Note

GeoMesa currently supports Kafka versions 2.0 and later.

The GeoMesa Kafka Data Store is an implementation of the GeoTools DataStore interface that is backed by Apache Kafka. The Kafka data store differs from most data stores in that queries are not run against the persisted data (which is stored in Kafka topics). Instead, each data store will consume the data topic, keep it cached in local memory, and run queries against the in-memory cache.

To get started with the Kafka Data Store, try the GeoMesa Kafka Quick Start tutorial.
