azure_data_lake_gen2

Available in: Cloud, Self-Managed

Sends message parts as files to an Azure Data Lake Gen2 file system. Each file is uploaded with the file name specified in the path field.

Introduced in version 4.38.0.

outputs:
  label: ""
  azure_data_lake_gen2:
    storage_account: ""
    storage_access_key: ""
    storage_connection_string: ""
    storage_sas_token: ""
    filesystem: "" # No default (required)
    path: ${!counter()}-${!timestamp_unix_nano()}.txt
    max_in_flight: 64

To specify a different path value (file name) for each file, use function interpolations. Function interpolations are calculated for each message in a batch.

Authentication methods

This output supports multiple authentication methods. You must configure at least one method from the following list:

  • storage_connection_string

  • storage_account and storage_access_key

  • storage_account and storage_sas_token

  • storage_account to access using DefaultAzureCredential

If you configure multiple authentication methods, the storage_connection_string takes precedence.

Performance

Sends multiple messages in flight in parallel for improved performance. You can tune the number of in flight messages (or message batches) with the field max_in_flight.

Fields

filesystem

The name of the data lake storage file system you want to upload messages to. This field supports interpolation functions.

Type: string

# Examples:
filesystem: messages-${!timestamp("2006")}

max_in_flight

The maximum number of messages to have in flight at a given time. Increase this number to improve throughput until performance plateaus.

Type: int

Default: 64

path

The path (file name) of each message to upload to the data lake storage file system. This field supports interpolation functions.

Type: string

Default: ${!counter()}-${!timestamp_unix_nano()}.txt

# Examples:
path: ${!counter()}-${!timestamp_unix_nano()}.json

# ---

path: ${!meta("kafka_key")}.json

# ---

path: ${!json("doc.namespace")}/${!json("doc.id")}.json

storage_access_key

The access key for the storage account. Use this field along with storage_account for authentication. This field is ignored when the storage_connection_string field is populated.

Type: string

Default: ""

storage_account

The storage account to access. This field is ignored when the storage_connection_string field is populated.

Type: string

Default: ""

storage_connection_string

The connection string for the storage account. You must enter a value for this field if no other authentication method is specified.

If the storage_connection_string field does not contain the AccountName parameter value, specify it in the storage_account field.

Type: string

Default: ""

storage_sas_token

The SAS token for the storage account. Use this field along with storage_account for authentication. This field is ignored when either the storage_connection_string or storage_access_key fields are populated.

Type: string

Default: ""
