Hi Yogesh, I'm not sure if this is possible or not. I'd be interested in knowing. My gut thinks it would be an anti-pattern if it's possible to do something like this and that's why I handle it in either the foreachRDD or foreachPartition. The way I look at spark streaming is as an application which is always running and doing something like windowed batching or microbatching or whatever I'm trying to accomplish. IF an RDD I get from Kafka is empty then I don't run the rest of the job. IF the RDD I'm get from Kafka has some number of events then I'll process the RDD further.

For example, if I have get JavaPairReceiverInputDStream in following manner: JavaPairReceiverInputDStream<String, String> message=KafkaUtils.createStream(ssc, zkQuorum, group, topics, StorageLevel.MEMORY_AND_DISK_SER()); Then I would like check whether message is empty or not. If it not empty then go for further operations else wait for some data in Kafka.
