Source Connector
Note
Atlas Stream Processing provides MongoDB-native tooling to continuously process streaming data, validate schemas, and materialize views into either Atlas database collections or Apache Kafka topics.
To learn more about Atlas Stream Processing, see Atlas Stream Processing.
Overview
This section focuses on the MongoDB Kafka source connector. The source connector is a Kafka Connect connector that reads data from MongoDB and writes data to Apache Kafka.
The source connector works by opening a single change stream with MongoDB and sending data from that change stream to Kafka Connect. Your source connector maintains its change stream for the duration of its runtime, and your connector closes its change stream when you stop it.
Configuration Properties
To learn about configuration options for your source connector, see the Configuration Properties section.
