We wish all the best to the Debezium community for 2018!

While we’re working on the 0.7.2 release, we thought we’d publish another post describing an end-to-end data streaming use case based on Debezium. We have seen how to set up a change data stream to a downstream database a few weeks ago. In this blog post we will follow the same approach to stream the data to an Elasticsearch server to leverage its excellent capabilities for full-text search on our data. But to make the matter a little bit more interesting, we will stream the data to both, a PostgreSQL database and Elasticsearch, so we will optimize access to the data via the SQL query language as well as via full-text search.
