--------------------------------------------

Hi, I added some features to traditional DRA to work for structured streaming 
usecase based on the heuristics of trigger interval. It has been working as 
expected for the last few months in my company. I would like to contribute back 
to the community, Should I directly send a pull request for review or a 
document explaining how the dra is modified for structured streaming usecase?

> Structured Streaming should support dynamic allocation

>                 Key: SPARK-24815
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-24815
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Scheduler, Spark Core, Structured Streaming
>    Affects Versions: 2.3.1
>            Reporter: Karthik Palaniappan
>            Priority: Minor

> For batch jobs, dynamic allocation is very useful for adding and removing 
> containers to match the actual workload. On multi-tenant clusters, it ensures 
> that a Spark job is taking no more resources than necessary. In cloud 
> environments, it enables autoscaling.
> However, if you set spark.dynamicAllocation.enabled=true and run a structured 
> streaming job, the batch dynamic allocation algorithm kicks in. It requests 
> more executors if the task backlog is a certain size, and removes executors 
> if they idle for a certain period of time.
> Quick thoughts:
> 1) Dynamic allocation should be pluggable, rather than hardcoded to a 
> particular implementation in SparkContext.scala (this should be a separate 
> JIRA).
> 2) We should make a structured streaming algorithm that's separate from the 
> batch algorithm. Eventually, continuous processing might need its own 
> algorithm.
> 3) Spark should print a warning if you run a structured streaming job when 
> Core's dynamic allocation is enabled
