             Summary: The ability to read binary files into Spark
                 Key: SPARK-2759
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-2759
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Input/Output, Java API, Spark Core
            Reporter: Kevin Mader


For reading images, compressed files, or other custom formats it would be 
useful to have methods that could read the files in as a byte array or 
DataInputStream so other functions could then process the data.
