Using spark streaming to load data from Kafka to HDFS

[Rendy Bambang Junior]

Hi all,

I am planning to load data from Kafka to HDFS. Is it normal to use spark
streaming to load data from Kafka to HDFS? What are concerns on doing this?

There are no processing to be done by Spark, only to store data to HDFS
from Kafka for storage and for further Spark processing
