Canal is an open-source project developed by Alibaba that simulates MySQL slave functionality to parse MySQL binlog files. It enables real-time data synchronization and change data capture (CDC) between MySQL and other systems such as Elasticsearch, Kafka, or HBase. Canal is widely used for data integration, replication, and monitoring across distributed systems, offering high performance and low-latency log parsing.
Features
