Overview
Data export to CKafka is a data export solution provided by COS based on SCF. It can help you export data in CSV, JSON, and other formats to the CKafka service in the same region for aggregation and analysis of massive amount of message and log data. Notes
Data export to CKafka involves COS' data extraction APIs. For more information on the restrictions, see SELECT Overview. If you have added a rule of data export to CKafka to your bucket in the COS console, the export function will appear in the SCF console. Do not delete or modify the function; otherwise, your rule may not take effect. Currently, the data export to CKafka feature is only supported in Guangzhou, Shanghai, Beijing, and Chengdu regions.
The data export to CKafka feature depends on the SCF service, which provides a free tier. Excessive usage will be billed at SCF prices. For more information, see Pricing. Directions
