Thanks.
So in the overall scheme of things, what is the general feeling about using
python for this? I like the ease of deploying and reading python compared
with Java but want to make sure using python over hadoop is scalable & is
standard practice and not something done only for prototyping and small
scale tests.

Streaming is slightly slower than native Java jobs. Otherwise Python works
great in streaming.
