It seems that Flink argues that the latency for streaming data is eliminated whereas with Spark RDD there is this latency.
I noticed that Flink does not support interactive shell much like Spark shell where you can add jars to it to do kafka testing. The advice was to add the streaming Kafka jar file to CLASSPATH but that does not work. Most Flink documentation also rather sparce with the usual example of word count which is not exactly what you want. Anyway I will have a look at it further. I have a Spark Scala streaming Kafka program that works fine in Spark and I want to recode it using Scala for Flink with Kafka but have difficulty importing and testing libraries.
