Modules

The "Modules" section defines the types of components to use, as follows.

"Modules" : {
  "Reader" : "File",
  "Sender" : "<SenderType>",
  "Serializer" : "Json",
  "StorageProvider" : "<StorageProviderType>",
  "TopicManager" : "File",
  "SchemaGenerator" : "Json",
  "SchemaRegistry" : "<SchemaRegistryType>"
}

The Modules section components are listed in the following table.

Component	Type of...
"Reader"	Reader to use, which must be "File" in this release.
"Sender"	Sender to use, which can be one of: "Kafka", "Azure", or "File". These are referred to as SenderType.
"Serializer"	Type of serializer to use. This must be "Json".
"StorageProvider"	Type of external storage provider to use for storing over‑threshold size blob and slob data, which can be one of: "File" or "AzureBlobStorage".
"TopicManager"	Topic manager to use, which must be "File" in this release.
"SchemaGenerator"	Type of schema generator to use. This must be "Json".
"SchemaRegistry"	Type of "SchemaRegistry" to use for looking up and storing Event Schemas. This can be one of: "None" or "Azure", or "Confluent".

The SenderType essentially selects the event streaming platform (or file sender for development and testing) and the appropriate client for the selected type. The selected SenderType determines which <SenderType>Sender section in the Configurations section will be used.
