The MapR implementation of the Kafka 0.9 API for producers is delivered as part of the MapR server installation in a separate .jar file named kafka-clients-0.9.0.0-mapr-

.jar, where

varies by MapR version. This file is required to access MapR by using the Kafka 0.9 API definitions. If you run CDC Publisher on a MapR client machine, copy this .jar file from the MapR server to the local lib subdirectory that contains the MapR client libraries.

The PowerExchange CDC Publisher supports MapR topics that are defined under a single MapR stream name. A CDC Publisher instance can use only one MapR stream name.

PowerExchange CDC Publisher does not interact with or implement any feature of the MapR-DB Change Data Capture (CDC) system.
