--------------------------
Summary: API Method on Kafka Streams for processing chunks/batches
of data
Key: KAFKA-7432
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-7432
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: sam
For many situations in Big Data it is preferable to work with a small buffer of
records at a go, rather than one record at a time.
The natural example is calling some external API that supports batching for
efficiency.
How can we do this in Kafka Streams? I cannot find anything in the API that
looks like what I want.
So far I have:
{{builder.stream[String, String]("my-input-topic")
.mapValues(externalApiCall).to("my-output-topic")}}
What I want is:
{{builder.stream[String, String]("my-input-topic") .batched(chunkSize =
2000).map(externalBatchedApiCall).to("my-output-topic")}}
In Scala and Akka Streams the function is called {{grouped}} or {{batch}}. In
Spark Structured Streaming we can do
{{mapPartitions.map(_.grouped(2000).map(externalBatchedApiCall))}}.
