# Aiven JDBC Sink Connector

Aiven JDBC Sink Connector allows you to continuously store the data from your
Kafka Topics in any sql dialect relational database like Mysql,PostgreSql etc.
In this guide, we will walk you through creating an Aiven JDBC Sink Connector.

## Get Started

### Create a Kafka Cluster

<Info>
  If you do not have a Kafka cluster and/or topic already, follow [these
  steps](../overall/getstarted) to create one.
</Info>

### Create the Connector

Go to the Connectors tab, and create your first connector by clicking the **New
Connector** button.

The advanced screen is for any other configuration that the selected connector
supports. At the top of this screen, you can find a link to related
documentation. We can proceed with what we have and click the **Connect** button
directly.

Congratulations! You have created an Aiven JDBC Sink Connector.

As you put data into your selected topics, the data will be written into your
relational database.
