Bento Opensnowcat/Snowplow Cookbook Examples

Use these cookbooks to deploy Bento with OpenSnowcat / Snowplow.
Feel free to experiment and try them out using OpenSnowcat DevKit

This example takes data from a Kafka topic enriched-good converts TSV to JSON through opensnowcat processor and saves the resulting flatten JSON to a new Kafka topic enriched-good-json.
