I'm not familiar with Storm, but Samza doesn't really have any abstractions above the job level. Meaning there's nothing I'm aware of that will automatically configure your jobs such that they link together in some order you specify. You just have to manually configure task.inputs on the downstream jobs to read what you're writing from the upstream ones. That is a nice concept though!

For example In task one I want read data from kafka que and emit messages with group by key , in second task I want to read the messages emitted from first task and further process them. Essentially I have to link Task one output to Task two , which should read output from task one and do further processing. Any pointers for this is highly appreciated. This is very similar to spark and storm where output of one task can be feed as input to another task, Please kindly provide your inputs if tasks can be chained or linked in samza. An example from storm is provided below for better understanding problem Please see following snippet from storm processing, how stepOne output is linked to StepTwo. builder.setBolt("StepOne", new StepIdentificationRichBolt(),1).setNumTasks(1) .globalGrouping("KafkaSpout"); builder.setBolt("StepTwo", new ProcessIdentificationRichBolt_With_TrimSequence(),4).setNumTasks(4) .fieldsGrouping("StepOne", new Fields("UserName")); Output of stepOne send as input to steptwo in above line of code in storm.
