  • cd /Users/ketangote/opt/zookeeper/conf
  • cp zoo_sample.cfg zoo.cfg
  • Open zoo.cfg using nano or vi and update data folder location:   dataDir=/Users/ketangote/opt/zookeeper/data
  • Start zookeeper commands: sh zkServer.sh start




  • Once zookeeper is started, use below command for verification.
           telnet localhost 2181



  • Stop ZoopKeeper server : shZKServer.sh stop

  • Extract folder in /opt folder.It can be any directory.
  • Edit config/server.properties as below listeners=PLAINTEXT://:9099 broker.id=1
  • Start serversh bin/kafka-server-start.sh config/server.properties
  • Stop server sh bin/kafka-server-stop.sh config/server.properties



Commands to Produce and Consume message on Kafka

  • Produce a message using below command sh bin/kafka-console-producer.sh --broker-list localhost:9099 --topic topic..... Type some messages

Redis Basic CRUD

We have seen how to setup on your linux machine here , now we will see how to perform basic CRUD operations using Spring Data & Redis server We will be creating a simple application that would persist an employee information into redis database. You will be needing certain JARs like jedis.jar, spring-data-redis.jar etc details of which you can download and view at https://github.com/meta-magic/RedisCRUDexample.git  First of all we will be creating the Employee entity, plz note that we are using the Serializable interface which automatically mapps the objects against the key. Employee.java import java.io.Serializable ; public class Employee implements Serializable { private static final long serialVersionUID = - 8243145429438016231L ; public enum Gender { Male , Female } private String id; private String name; private Gender gender; private int age; public String getId () { return id; } public void setId ( Str...

Ribbon , Hysterix using Spring Feign

The idea about this post is show some concept of  Load Balancing  & Circuit Breaker  using Spring Cloud Netflix API. Load Balancing Load Balancing automatically distributes incoming application traffic between number of nodes running for given application. Ribbon  : This provide client side load balancing. Its component offers a good set of configuration options such as connection timeouts, retries, retry algorithm  etc. Strategies offered by ribbon are listed below: Simple Round Robin LB Weighted Response Time LB Zone Aware Round Robin LB Random LB Circuit Breaker pattern Netflix’s Hystrix library provides an implementation of the Circuit Breaker pattern: when we apply a circuit breaker to a method, Hystrix watches for failing calls to that method, and if failures build up to a threshold, Hystrix opens the circuit so that subsequent calls automatically fail. While the circuit is open, Hystrix redirects calls to the metho...

CRUD in MongoDB & Spring Data

Now, since we have already been introduced to mongo and its server is setup. We shall now move on to performing basic CRUD operations. Lets take a use case example of ‘Company’ database that stores employee information.  We wish to store employee name, email address, age and multiple addresses. Traditionally in RDBMS we would create an Employee table and Address Table having foreign key reference to ‘employee id ‘ Incase of NoSQL, we will be creating Employee documnet which will have store employee information like name, email, age and an array of employes address. Following is a snippet of the schema defined { "name" : "", "email" : "", "age" : “”, "address" : [ ... ] } Thus to begin with, we will first define the entities. We have employee as an aggregate root entity that stores list of address having 1-M relatioship. Address Entity is represend as @Embeddable as it is embaded in another aggregate root entity. Employee is...
