There exists an Spark Streaming example of the classic word count, using apache kafka connector:
https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/examples/src/main/java/org/apache/spark/examples/streaming/JavaKafkaWordCount.java (maybe you already know) The point is, what are the benefits from using Kafka, instead of a lighter solution like yours. Maybe anybody could help us. Anyway, when I try it out, I'll give you feedback. On the other hand, have you got ,by any chance, the same script written on Scala, Phyton or Java ? -- View this message in context: http://apache-spark-user-list.1001560.n3.nabble.com/Join-streams-Apache-Spark-tp28603p28658.html Sent from the Apache Spark User List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe e-mail: user-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org
