--------------------------------------
> Be able to provide higher parallelization for StructuredStreaming Kafka Source
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-18475
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-18475
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Structured Streaming
> Affects Versions: 2.0.2, 2.1.0
> Reporter: Burak Yavuz
>
> Right now the StructuredStreaming Kafka Source creates as many Spark tasks as
> there are TopicPartitions that we're going to read from Kafka.
> This doesn't work well when we have data skew, and there is no reason why we
> shouldn't be able to increase parallelism further, i.e. have multiple Spark
> tasks reading from the same Kafka TopicPartition.
> What this will mean is that we won't be able to use the "CachedKafkaConsumer"
> for what it is defined for (being cached) in this use case, but the extra
> overhead is worth handling data skew and increasing parallelism especially in
> ETL use cases.
