Squirreling Away $640 Billion: How Stripe Leverages Flink for Change Data Capture
Change Data Capture (CDC) is widely-
used at Stripe to capture data changes
from databases without critically
impacting database reliability and
scalability. CDC powers many critical
financial use cases at Stripe such as the
Stripe Dashboard, Stripe Search, Sigma,
and Financial Reporting.
From idea to production—things may
seem straightforward at first, but the
details matter. We detail our journey of
how we leveraged Flink for Change Data
Capture at Stripe in order to uphold the
highest data quality standards. Freshness,
Coverage, and Correctness SLOs are
paramount to the success of platforms
and applications running on top of our
CDC infrastructure.
Change Event Streams are ubiquitous
across Stripe given the vast number of
applications and employees generating
datasets worldwide. Change Event
Streams are independent from one
another which leads to the typical
challenges in distributed systems. One of
the major use cases revolves around
aggregating individual change events of a
database transaction to support Stripe’s
payments infrastructure.

Building a Platform
Make sure that we abstract away
database internals such as sharding
topology and ensure a datastore-agnostic
transport.
Build a high leveraged platform which
makes working with Change Events
interoperable with other systems within
the organization.
Minimal toil given as we scale the number
of datasets, ensure clean separation
between infrastructure and user issues,
create great operator experiences, reduce
control plane and data plane blast radius,
maintain good operator tooling/developer
experience/processes.

Why?
17
Aggregating Change Events
Product teams working with payments data use transactions
Arbitrary number of tables in a database transaction
They should be able to get transactions back out from the CDC path
They shouldn’t have to become stream processing experts

Squirreling Away $640 Billion: How Stripe Leverages Flink for Change Data Capture
Change Data Capture (CDC) is widely-
used at Stripe to capture data changes
from databases without critically
impacting database reliability and
scalability. CDC powers many critical
financial use cases at Stripe such as the
Stripe Dashboard, Stripe Search, Sigma,
and Financial Reporting.
From idea to production—things may
seem straightforward at first, but the
details matter. We detail our journey of
how we leveraged Flink for Change Data
Capture at Stripe in order to uphold the
highest data quality standards. Freshness,
Coverage, and Correctness SLOs are
paramount to the success of platforms
and applications running on top of our
CDC infrastructure.
Change Event Streams are ubiquitous
across Stripe given the vast number of
applications and employees generating
datasets worldwide. Change Event
Streams are independent from one
another which leads to the typical
challenges in distributed systems. One of
the major use cases revolves around
aggregating individual change events of a
database transaction to support Stripe’s
payments infrastructure.

How it Started, How it Ended
Possible Fix
87
Switch from event time to processing time
Less precise
Could cause premature trigger firing, resulting in incomplete aggregates
How it Started, How it Ended
Actual Fix
88
Add idleness property on sources
Can still use event time
More precise
Not perfect; can still result in incomplete aggregates in edge cases
That’s the reality of streaming
How it Started, How it Ended
Platform

How it Started, How it Ended
How It Started
How It Started How It Ended
Don’t want to redeploy every time a new dataset (Kafka Topic) is added
Observations
92
How it Started, How it Ended
Blows away Freshness SLO’s error budget
Poor developer onboarding experience
Fix
93
Instead of Kafka Topic List Subscriber, use Regex Subscriber
Subscribe to all topics (for a keyspace) by default
Control plane (external) service produces an event to Broadcast Stream
On broadcast element, use Broadcast State to keep onboarded datasets in state
On element, check Broadcast State and filter for onboarded datasets
How it Started, How it Ended
Coverage

How it Started, How it Ended
How It Started
How It Started How It Ended
Observations
Incomplete aggregates still happening, but not frequently
97
How it Started, How it Ended
Kafka by default is at-least-once delivery
Many independent streams operating at different speeds
Storage will be expensive. Trade-off between confidence and cost-
efficiency: KV store or bloom filter
Move incomplete aggregate measurement out of the Flink Job and into a
system downstream
Fix
98
How it Started, How it Ended
New system needs to dedupe events… for all time?

Squirreling Away $640 Billion: How Stripe Leverages Flink for Change Data Capture
Change Data Capture (CDC) is widely-
used at Stripe to capture data changes
from databases without critically
impacting database reliability and
scalability. CDC powers many critical
financial use cases at Stripe such as the
Stripe Dashboard, Stripe Search, Sigma,
and Financial Reporting.
From idea to production – things may
seem straightforward at first, but the
details matter. We detail our journey of
how we leveraged Flink for Change Data
Capture at Stripe in order to uphold the
highest data quality standards. Freshness,
Coverage, and Correctness SLOs are
paramount to the success of platforms
and applications running on top of our
CDC infrastructure.
Change Event Streams are ubiquitous
across Stripe given the vast number of
applications and employees generating
datasets worldwide. Change Event
Streams are independent from one
another which leads to the typical
challenges in distributed systems. One of
the major use cases revolves around
aggregating individual change events of a
database transaction to support Stripe’s
payments infrastructure.
Aggregating Change Events is relatively
straightforward, but the details matter
Squirreling Away $640 Billion: How Stripe Leverages Flink for Change Data Capture
Wrap Up
102
Change Data Capture (CDC) is widely-used at
Stripe to improve database reliability and scalability
Flink is a critical component in Stripe’s CDC
infrastructure that allows us to work with financial
streaming data with high data quality guarantees
Thank you!

CDC powers many critical financial use cases at Stripe such as the Stripe Dashboard, Stripe Search, Sigma, and Financial Reporting. From idea to production—things may seem straightforward at first, but the details matter. We detail our journey of how we leveraged Flink for Change Data Capture at Stripe in order to uphold the highest data quality standards. Freshness, Coverage, and Correctness SLOs are paramount to the success of platforms and applications running on top of our CDC infrastructure. Change Event Streams are ubiquitous across Stripe given the vast number of applications and employees generating datasets worldwide. Change Event Streams are independent from one another which leads to the typical challenges in distributed systems. One of the major use cases revolves around aggregating individual change events of a database transaction to support Stripe’s payments infrastructure.

Interoperable Abstract Away Internals Operational Excellence 15 Building a Platform Make sure that we abstract away database internals such as sharding topology and ensure a datastore-agnostic transport. Build a high leveraged platform which makes working with Change Events interoperable with other systems within the organization. Minimal toil given as we scale the number of datasets, ensure clean separation between infrastructure and user issues, create great operator experiences, reduce control plane and data plane blast radius, maintain good operator tooling/developer experience/processes.

  1. What is Stripe? Who is it for?
  2. At what scale? $640B annual in payment volume. Challenging…
  3. Many products, many apps and services, many datasets.
  4. Across many databases of different types. Mongo, MySQL. Multi-region, databases have many shards which are split as volume grows.
  5. Watermarks per partition, not per key. Perhaps note an upstream issue, nonetheless, could have manifested by testing out late events.
  6. Watermark = min parallelism
  7. Keys can go to the same partition, one key could be late, another could not. Watermark will progress. Timeout will fire - incomplete aggregate. Late key comes in and is treated as incomplete aggregate again.
  8. Connect with broadcast stream. processElement -> check broadcast state processBroadcastElement -> update state
  9. Union or join. Streams are independent and any one stream can have duplicate. If duplicate, will result in incomplete aggregate for that key. It won’t unless all streams have the same number of duplicates for that key, but unlikely. Imagine an aggregate was just completed for a key. Then, dup happens and event sits in state until timed out.
