Alexey Romanenko commented on BEAM-2466:
----------------------------------------

[~teabot]
1) I'm not very familiar with KStreams API. Does it require to have Kafka topic 
as input in any case? Does KStreams source heavily linked with Kafka topics?
2) "Only streaming support" - well, this is kind of against initial Beam idea 
of easily switching between batch and streaming pipelines (since it won't be 
possible to use KafkaRunner for other pipelines, written in traditional Beam 
way). So, it's quite serious limitation, imho, but, perhaps, there could be 
some workarounds for that.

> Kafka Streams (https://kafka.apache.org/documentation/streams)  has more and 
> more features that could make it a viable candidate for a streaming runner. 
> It uses DataFlow-like model
