I came here to say something similar. It has also occurred to me that vectordev hasn’t gotten much attention here on HN. It’s a great tool. You can listen on a TCP socket, write to Kafka in an upstream instance, then read from Kafka, transform data, and write to ES or whatever downstream. I’ve even recently completed tests where I could write from vector to vector at over 6 million records a second.

I don’t really mean to discourage the author of the post, I just realize this can be done with two simple vector configs.
