Kafka In-Class Project

Goal: In this module, you will work on a project, which will be gathering messages from multiple 

sources.

 Scenario:

In E-commerce industry, you must have seen how catalog changes frequently. Most deadly problem they face is “How to make their inventory and price

consistent?”.

 There are various places where price reflects on Amazon, Flipkart or Snapdeal. If you will visit Search page, Product Description page or any ads on Facebook/google. You will find there are some mismatch in price and availability. If we see user point of view that’s very disappointing because he spends more time to find better products and at last if he doesn’t purchase just because of consistency.

Here you have to build a system which should be consistent in nature. For example, if you are getting product feeds either through flat file or any event

stream you have to make sure you don’t lose any events related to product specially inventory and price.

 If we talk about price and availability it should always be consistent because there might be possibility that the product is sold or the seller doesn’t want to sell it anymore or any other reason. However, attributes like Name, description doesn’t make that much noise if not updated on time.

 Problem Statement

You have given set of sample products. You have to consume and push products to Cassandra/MySQL once we get products in the consumer. You have to save below-mentioned fields in Cassandra.

1. PogId

2. Supc

3. Brand

4. Description

5. Size

6. Category

7. Sub Category

8. Country

9. Seller Code

 In MySQL, you have to store

1. PogId

2. Supc

3. Price

4. Quantity
