VAST Event Broker topics can be queried through the VAST Database API, and also using VAST Database connectors (e.g. the connectors for Trino and Spark).
The following Trino example shows the schema (kafka_topics) of the VAST Database used to store event topics, among other schemas on the VAST cluster:
trino> show schemas in vast; Schema ------------------------------------------------- information_schema kafka2/kafka_topics system_schema vast-audit-log-bucket/vast_audit_log_schema vast-big-catalog-bucket/vast_big_catalog_schema (5 rows)
The following Trino example shows topics within the kafka_topics schema:
trino> show tables in vast."kafka2/kafka_topics"; Table ------------------------ docker-connect-configs docker-connect-offsets docker-connect-status my-new-topic myfirsttopic newtopic streaming-topic (7 rows)
