​
Overview

Discards all incoming records without writing anywhere. Useful for benchmarking source and transform throughput without sink I/O overhead, or for temporarily disabling output while iterating on transforms.

​
Configuration

sinks:
  my_blackhole_sink:
    type: blackhole
    from: my_transform

​
Parameters

​
type
string
required
Must be blackhole
​
from
string
required
The transform or source to read data from

​
Use Cases

  • Performance Testing: Measure transform performance without sink overhead
  • Pipeline Validation: Test that data flows correctly without writing anywhere
  • Development: Temporarily disable output while working on transforms

​
Example

sinks:
  perf_test:
    type: blackhole
    from: complex_transform
