What are the best migration tools for Cassandra?
@shiji.cherian_137128 you haven't provided a lot of information so I'm going to assume that you mean migrating data from another database to Cassandra.
DataStax Enterprise provides various solutions for migrating data from external sources to a DSE cluster depending on your use case:
- DataStax Bulk Loader is tool which allows large amounts of CSV or JSON data to be imported to a DSE database.
- DSE Graph Loader is a utility for loading graph datasets into DSE Graph.
- Use Apache Spark with DSE Analytics to connect to different data sources then save data to a DSE database.
- DataStax Apache Kafka connector synchronises records from a Kafka topic to DSE.
Otherwise, there are lots of ETL vendors which support extract-transform-load solutions for DataStax Enterprise. For more information, see Migrating data to DataStax Enterprise. Cheers!
HI @Erick Ramirez, thanks for reaching out
by migration tool, I meant a tool that keeps a track and organises the database schema evolutions, more like version control of database. for rdbms, we have tools like flyway and liquibase. similarly, do we have for cassandra?
@shiji.cherian_137128 there isn't such a tool in Cassandra. Cheers!
