1. In Funnel

Create a File Share in Funnel to the destination of your choice:

  • S3

  • Microsoft Blob Storage

  • Google Cloud Storage

  • SFTP

Share your files as CSV or TSV.

Depending on your setup you might need to have another step to move the files to where you host your Cassandra instance.

2. In Cassandra

This is an example of a setup in Cassandra.

If you already have a complete setup then go to step 2.4.

2.1 Create a keyspace

Create a keyspace named "example" with two nodes

CREATE KEYSPACE example WITH replication = {
'class': 'SimpleStrategy', 'replication_factor': 2
};

2.2 Use the keyspace

Use the keyspace created in the previous step

USE example;

2.3 Create a table

Create a table named "example" with two nodes

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS funnel_data (
date date PRIMARY KEY,
sourceType text,
sourceId text,
currency text,
common_cost float,
common_clicks int,
common_impressions int
);

2.4 Copy the data into the table

The shared CSV/TSV file in S3 (from step 1) can now be copied into the table with a simple COPY FROM statement.

Important: Remember to use the option ESCAPE='"' since Funnel uses quotes as escape characters.

COPY funnel_data (
date,
sourceType,
sourceId,
currency,
common_cost,
common_clicks,
common_impressions
)
FROM 'example.csv'
WITH ESCAPE='"';'

Done!

Your data is now stored and can be queried in your Cassandra database.
