Debezium + OrchestrAI
Catalog exported 2026-09-02 · Debezium website
Create, pause, restart, and inspect Debezium CDC connectors on Kafka Connect from chat.
OrchestrAI exposes 15 Debezium operations: 9 are low-risk (read-only or low-impact), and 6 create or modify resources and run only after you confirm the plan. 2 of them also carry a step-level approval gate.
What teams use it for
Streaming teams use OrchestrAI to diagnose a Debezium connector whose task went into FAILED state, restart the task, and confirm which topics the connector writes to. Nine of the fifteen operations are read-only status and configuration lookups, pause, restart, resume, and update run on request, creating a connector is confirmed, and deleting one is high risk and confirmed. There is no operation to reset offsets or snapshot a table again, so use the Kafka Connect API for those.

Risk tiers come from the catalog: low is read-only or low-impact, medium creates resources and is reversible, high modifies existing resources, destructive may lose data. Every plan that creates or changes resources is shown with its cost estimate and waits for your confirmation. Operations marked with a step-level approval pause again on their own step. Destructive operations require a typed risk phrase.
What you connect
A Debezium credential (stored as debezium).
Connected-service tokens are envelope-encrypted with a per-record key wrapped by a cloud KMS.
Prompts that work
- Why is the Debezium connector inventory-postgres in FAILED state? Show its tasks and last error
- Restart task 0 of the orders-mysql connector
- Create a Debezium Postgres connector for the billing database that captures the public.invoices table
Before anything runs
Every mutation shows its plan, cost estimate, and blast radius, then waits for your confirmation. Destructive operations require a typed risk phrase. Credentials are minted per run through OIDC federation and discarded afterward; nothing you create here is invisible later, because every resource lands in the desired-state ledger where drift is detected and can be converged. Details on the security page.
Frequently asked questions
- Can OrchestrAI restart a Debezium connector?
- Yes. Restarting a connector or an individual task is a medium-risk operation and runs when you ask, since it does not change the connector configuration.
- What does OrchestrAI check before deleting a Debezium connector?
- Connector deletion is rated high risk. OrchestrAI displays the connector name and the topics it produces and waits for explicit confirmation before removing it.
- How does OrchestrAI authenticate to Debezium?
- You add a Debezium credential once in the connections screen. It is envelope-encrypted with a per-record key wrapped by a cloud KMS and is only decrypted inside the run that needs it.
