Redpanda Connect

A searchable catalog of available Redpanda Connect components

Visit Redpanda Connect

Redpanda Connect is a tool for building data streaming pipelines. It solves the problem of connecting disparate data sources and destinations, transforming data in transit, and managing the flow of information between systems. It provides a catalog of reusable components that can be assembled into pipelines.

Its main capabilities are organized into a catalog of components including inputs, outputs, processors, scanners, metrics, caches, tracers, rate limits, and buffers. These components support a wide range of technologies, including Apache Kafka, Amazon S3, GCP Pub/Sub, Azure Blob Storage, MongoDB, and Redis. It also includes processors for AI services like OpenAI, AWS Bedrock, and Cohere, as well as a Bloblang processor for data mapping and transformation. Components are searchable by type, support level (Certified or Community), cloud availability, and enterprise license requirements.

Redpanda Connect is designed for developers and data engineers who need to build and manage data pipelines. The component catalog indicates that some components are available in the cloud, while others require an enterprise license. The documentation does not specify a free plan, trial, or specific packaging details like editions or seat-based pricing.
