Hi everyone,<p>I'm excited to share a project I've been working on, called ConTube. It's a scalable data connector framework that aims to simplify and streamline the process of data migration between diverse systems. The key idea behind ConTube is to provide a universal set of data connection protocols, which can work with both Pulsar Connectors and Kafka Connectors, leveraging the rich data connection ecosystem of both systems.<p>For a quick overview, please check this example: <a href="https://github.com/RobertIndie/contube#example">https://github.com/RobertIndie/contube#example</a><p>One of the standout features of ConTube is its lightweight runtime. Unlike the Kafka and Pulsar Connect Frameworks, ConTube allows for running multiple tubes within a single JVM process or a single Docker container. This eliminates the need for running separate MQ clusters, which can be a game-changer in terms of resource utilization and operational complexity.<p>Moreover, ConTube provides a universal data format, capable of representing data from virtually any system. This feature is still under development, but the goal is to further enhance the framework's versatility and adaptability.<p>I want to stress that ConTube is still in the PoC stage. I'm hoping to get more invaluable feedbacks and support from the community. I would greatly appreciate any feedback, suggestions, or insights you might have. If you're interested in contributing to the development of ConTube, I would be more than happy to welcome you to the project.<p>Please bear in mind that while I'm proud of what ConTube has accomplished so far, I'm fully aware that there's still a long way to go. I'm committed to improving and expanding the framework, and I'm excited to see where our collective efforts can take it.<p>Here's the link to the [ConTube repository](<a href="https://github.com/RobertIndie/contube">https://github.com/RobertIndie/contube</a>) for you to explore. I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts and ideas.<p>Thank you for your time and consideration.
