Hi, I read an article which recommended to use dataframes instead of rdd primitives. Now I read about the differences over using DStreams and Structured Streaming and structured streaming adds a lot of improvements like checkpointing, windowing, sessioning, fault tolerance etc.
What I am interested to know is, if I have to start a new project is there any reason to prefer structured streaming over Dstreams? One argument is that the engine is abstracted with structured streaming and one can change the micro-batching engine to something like the continuous processing engine. Apart from that is there any special reason? Would there be a point in time when the DStreams and RDD would become obsolete?
