Debezium, Kafka Connect,
and CDC Pipelines – Without
the Glue Work

Debezium, Kafka Connect,
and CDC Pipelines – Without the Glue Work

Debezium and Kafka Connect are powerful for CDC and integrations, but they leave you stitching together clusters, connectors, and sink configs

Condense gives you a Kafka‑based streaming platform with built‑in connectors, CDC pipelines, and low‑code transforms on managed Kafka in your cloud

Custom Processing
and Integration

Applications (often Spring Boot) subscribe to Kafka, transform data, and write to downstream systems, mixing business logic with plumbing

All of this works – but demands expertise in Kafka, Connect,
Debezium, sink connectors, and application integration

Replace All of the Above with Condense as Your Managed CDC & Connector Layer

Build Kafka Data Pipelines Around Outcomes, Not Connectors

Condense lets you define end‑to‑end pipelines (source → transforms → sinks) visually
and attach transformations (enrich, filter, aggregate) within the platform, backed by Kafka

Use prebuilt connectors for databases, apps, and HDFS/S3‑like sinks, without provisioning Kafka Connect clusters

Configure pipelines end‑to‑end – from CDC source to sink – with one set of configs and observability
Integrate applications (including Spring Boot services) as pipeline participants rather than bespoke ‘glue’ consumers
