Conduit Connector S3

The S3 connector is one of Conduit builtin plugins. It provides both, a source and a destination S3 connectors.

Source

The S3 Source Connector connects to a S3 bucket with the provided configurations, using aws.bucket, aws.accessKeyId,aws.secretAccessKey and aws.region. If the bucket doesn't exist, or the permissions fail, then an error will occur. After that, the Open method is called to start the connection from the provided position.

Change Data Capture (CDC)

This connector implements CDC features for S3 by scanning the bucket for changes every pollingPeriod and detecting any change that happened after a certain timestamp. These changes (update, delete, create) are then inserted into a buffer that is checked on each Read request.

  • To capture "delete" and "update", the S3 bucket versioning must be enabled.
  • To capture "create" actions, the bucket versioning doesn't matter.

Position Handling

The connector goes through two modes.

  • Snapshot mode: which loops through the S3 bucket and returns the objects that are already in there. The Position during this mode is the object key attached to an underscore, an "s" for snapshot, and the maxLastModifiedDate found so far. As an example: "thisIsAKey_s12345", which makes the connector know at what mode it is and what object it last read. The maxLastModifiedDate will be used when changing to CDC mode, the iterator will capture changes that happened after that.

  • CDC mode: this mode iterates through the S3 bucket every pollingPeriod and captures new actions made on the bucket. the Position during this mode is the object key attached to an underscore, a "c" for CDC, and the object's lastModifiedDate in seconds. As an example: "thisIsAKey_c1634049397". This position is used to return only the actions with a lastModifiedDate higher than the last record returned, which will ensure that no duplications are in place.

Record Keys

The S3 object key uniquely identifies the objects in an Amazon S3 bucket, which is why a record key is the key read from the S3 bucket.

Destination

The S3 Destination Connector connects to an S3 bucket with the provided configurations, using aws.bucket, aws.accessKeyId,aws.secretAccessKey and aws.region. If the permissions fail, the connector will not be ready for writing to S3.

Writer

The S3 destination writer has a buffer with the size of bufferSize, for each time Write is called, a new record is added to the buffer. When the buffer is full, all the records from it will be written to the S3 bucket, and an ack function will be called for each record after being written.

How to build it

Run make.

Testing

Run make test to run all the tests. You must set the environment variables (AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, AWS_REGION) before you run all the tests. If not set, the tests that use these variables will be ignored.

Known Limitations

  • If a pipeline restarts during the snapshot, then the connector will start scanning the objects from the beginning of the bucket, which could result in duplications.
