Add a Connector for Migrating from AstraDB to Amazon Keyspaces #200

Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently, the CQLReplicator does not support direct migration from AstraDB to Amazon Keyspaces. This limitation prevents users from efficiently
transferring data between these two systems, which have different data models, API structures, and compatibility requirements.

The existing tools lack a dedicated connector to handle the unique schema transformations, data type mappings, and performance optimizations required for
this migration. As a result, users must rely on manual workarounds or third-party tools, which are time-consuming and error-prone.

Describe the solution you'd like
I’d like to request the addition of a dedicated connector for migrating data from AstraDB to Amazon Keyspaces. This connector should:

  • Handle schema and data type mapping between AstraDB and Amazon Keyspaces.
  • Support incremental data transfer with efficient batch processing.
  • Integrate with existing tools like ZDM Proxy for seamless migration workflows.
  • Include error handling and logging for data consistency and troubleshooting.

Additional context

  • This feature would benefit users migrating from AstraDB to Amazon Keyspaces, especially those requiring high-throughput, schema-aware data transfers.
  • The connector should prioritize compatibility with existing workflows and minimize manual intervention.
  • Documentation and example use cases would be valuable for adoption.
