Enrich Streams

In this article, we will be enriching customer call events with their customer details.

Enriching data streams with extra information by performing an efficient lookup is a common scenario for streaming SQL on Apache Kafka.

Topics involved:

customer_details messages contain information about the customer
customer_call_details messages contain information about calls

Streaming SQL enrichment on Apache Kafka

SET defaults.topic.autocreate=true;

INSERT INTO customers_callInfo
SELECT STREAM
    calls._value AS call 
    , customer._value AS customer
FROM  customer_call_details AS calls
        INNER JOIN  (SELECT TABLE * FROM customer_details) AS customer
            ON customer._key.customer.id = calls._key.customer.id

Testing data

To simplify our testing process and manage to run the above example in less than 60 seconds, we will be using SQL to create and populate the three Apache Kafka topics:

CREATE TOPIC customer_details

CREATE TABLE customer_details(
        _key.customer.typeID string
        , _key.customer.id string
        , customer.name string
        , customer.middleName string null
        , customer.surname string
        , customer.nationality string
        , customer.passportNumber string
        , customer.phoneNumber string
        , customer.email string null
        , customer.address string
        , customer.country string
        , customer.driverLicense string null
        , package.typeID string
        , package.description string
        , active boolean
)
FORMAT(avro, avro)
PROPERTIES(partitions=5, replication=1, compacted=true);

POPULATE TOPIC customer_details

INSERT INTO customer_details(
        _key.customer.typeID
        , _key.customer.id
        , customer.name

        , customer.email
        , customer.address
        , customer.country
        , customer.driverLicense
        , package.typeID
        , package.description
        , active
