What is it?

debezium-examples is a set of ready-to-run examples for Debezium, an open-source change data capture (CDC) platform that streams row-level changes from databases into event streams. Each example lives in its own folder and includes configuration files, Docker Compose setups or Kubernetes/OpenShift templates needed to try a specific scenario.

The examples cover a wide range of use cases: streaming Postgres, MySQL, MongoDB and SQL Server changes to Kafka, Apache Pulsar, Google Pub/Sub, Amazon Kinesis or Redis via Debezium Server; building outbox, saga, CQRS and audit-log patterns; and integrating with Kafka Streams, Apache Flink, Apache Camel, Neo4j, Milvus and Elasticsearch. A tutorial folder serves as the starting point for new users.

The repository is aimed at developers who already know what CDC is and want a concrete, working reference for a particular database, sink or architecture pattern.

Key features

  • 01Docker Compose setups for running Debezium with Kafka and source databases locally.
  • 02Examples for Postgres, MySQL, MongoDB, SQL Server and Oracle as change sources.
  • 03Debezium Server examples with sinks such as Pub/Sub, Kinesis, Pulsar and Redis.
  • 04Patterns including outbox, saga, CQRS, cache invalidation and audit logs.
  • 05Integrations with Kafka Streams, Flink, Camel, Neo4j, Milvus and Elasticsearch.
  • 06Kubernetes and OpenShift deployment templates for Debezium Server and the Operator.

Use cases

  • Learning how Debezium is configured for a specific database and sink before building your own pipeline.
  • Prototyping an outbox or saga pattern in a microservices architecture.
  • Syncing database changes into a search engine, vector store or graph database.
  • Testing a CDC setup locally with Docker Compose before deploying to Kubernetes.

Things to know

  • This is a collection of separate example setups, not a single installable program.
  • Several examples need cloud accounts such as AWS or Google Cloud, or a Kubernetes cluster.
