Reynold Xin commented on SPARK-13877:
-------------------------------------
I'm not 100% sure it is a good idea to move it out (it might be), but I'm
definitely against renaming the package name.
Given Kafka is one of the most widely used streaming sources in 1.x, moving
this out and changing the package name means we are breaking almost every spark
streaming app out there when they upgrade to 2.x. It seems like we are doing
all these extra work just to break things.
> Consider removing Kafka modules from Spark / Spark Streaming

> Key: SPARK-13877
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-13877
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: Spark Core, Streaming
> Affects Versions: 1.6.1
> Reporter: Hari Shreedharan
>
> Based on the discussion the PR for SPARK-13843
> ([here|https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/11672#issuecomment-196553283]),
> we should consider moving the Kafka modules out of Spark as well.
> Providing newer functionality (like security) has become painful while
> maintaining compatibility with older versions of Kafka. Moving this out
> allows more flexibility, allowing users to mix and match Kafka and Spark
> versions.
