Jerome Boulon commented on CHUKWA-102:
--------------------------------------

I effectively wrote a prototype long time ago, in fact prior to the 
FileAdaptor. 
I understand your concern about buffering, network issue and so on however, 
there's some persistent requests to get something that does not write to disk 
but the contract will be clear: StreamingAdaptor could not guarantee any data 
delevery so if agent is not there the data will be dropped. Later on we may 
have some kind of buffering but that will not be the case for the first 
iteration. If loosing data is not acceptable then a file based adaptopr shold 
be used.
 
It's on my plan to work on this withing the next 3 weeks and I was planning to 
use Avro.
