When it&amp;rsquo;s time to transition from one system to another, the task can become complicated, drawn-out, and error-prone. Often the benefits of an alternative system (which can include &lt;a href="https://gigaom.com/report/the-cost-savings-of-replacing-kafka-with-pulsar/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;significant cost savings&lt;/a&gt;
 and other efficiencies) are outweighed by the risks and costs of migration. As a result, an organization can end up locked into a suboptimal situation, footing a bigger bill than necessary and missing out on modern features that help move the business forward faster.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Enterprise-Level Apache Cassandra Sink Connector for Apache Pulsar</title><link>https://foojayio.github.io/website/today/developing-an-enterprise-level-apache-cassandra-sink-connector-for-apache-pulsar/</link><pubDate>Wed, 24 Nov 2021 19:16:16 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://foojayio.github.io/website/today/developing-an-enterprise-level-apache-cassandra-sink-connector-for-apache-pulsar/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;When &lt;a href="https://techcrunch.com/2021/01/27/datastax-acquires-kesque-as-it-gets-into-data-streaming/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;DataStax started investing in streaming with Apache Pulsar&lt;/a&gt;
™, we knew that one of the first things people would want to do was connect existing enterprise data sources to Apache Cassandra™ using Pulsar.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Apache Pulsar has a powerful framework called Pulsar IO to enable this kind of use case, and at DataStax we already had a best-in-class &lt;a href="https://docs.datastax.com/en/kafka/doc/kafka/kafkaIntro.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;Kafka Connect Sink&lt;/a&gt;
 that enables you to store structured data coming from one or more Kafka topics into DataStax Enterprise, Apache Cassandra, and Astra.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
