    Kafka Connect Milvus Connector

    Category: Data Integration & Migration
    Brand: Zilliz
    Type: Kafka sink connector (plugin for Kafka Connect)

    Overview

    Kafka Connect Milvus Connector is a Kafka sink connector that streams vector data from Kafka topics into Milvus-based vector databases, including self-hosted Milvus and Zilliz Cloud. It is designed to build real-time vector data ingestion pipelines where Kafka messages are written directly into Milvus collections.

    Features

    • Kafka sink connector for Milvus

      • Streams data from Kafka topics into Milvus collections.

    • Vector data ingestion

      • Supports ingestion of vector data into Milvus or Zilliz Cloud.
      • Targets collections that contain exactly one vector field and optional scalar fields.

    • Schema alignment between Kafka and Milvus

      • Requires Kafka message schema to match the Milvus collection schema.
      • Enforces one and only one vector field in the schema.
      • Supports zero or more scalar fields (e.g., string, integer, float).
      • Field names must match exactly between Kafka messages and Milvus collection.

    • Deployment targets

      • Works with Confluent Cloud (hosted Kafka).
      • Works with open-source Kafka clusters.
      • Writes to self-hosted Milvus or Zilliz Cloud.

    • Plugin packaging

      • Distributed as a plugin zip (e.g., zilliz-kafka-connect-milvus-xxx.zip) for Kafka Connect.

    • Real-time streaming pipelines

      • Designed for real-time or near real-time streaming of vector data from Kafka into Milvus.

    Requirements & Usage Notes

    • Need a running Kafka environment (Confluent Cloud or open-source Kafka).
    • Need a Milvus or Zilliz Cloud instance with collections defined.
    • Kafka topic messages must use a schema that matches the target Milvus collection (same fields, same names, one vector field).

    Pricing

    • Not specified in the provided content. The connector is hosted on GitHub and appears as an open-source project; consult the repository and license file for details.
