Thanks Krishna. Seems like you have to use Avro and then convert that to 
Parquet. I was hoping to directly convert RDDs to Parquet files. I’ll look into 
this some more.

Thanks,
Mahesh

Mahesh,

 *   One direction could be : create a parquet schema, convert & save the 
records to hdfs.
 *   This might help

Hello,

Is there an easy way to convert RDDs within a DStream into Parquet records?
Here is some incomplete pseudo code:

// Create streaming context
val ssc = new StreamingContext(...)

// Obtain a DStream of events
val ds = KafkaUtils.createStream(...)

// Get Spark context to get to the SQL context
val sc = ds.context.sparkContext

val sqlContext = new org.apache.spark.sql.SQLContext(sc)

// For each RDD
ds.foreachRDD((rdd: RDD[Array[Byte]]) => {

    // What do I do next?
})

Thanks,
Mahesh
