Realtime sensor's tcpip data to hadoop

[Alex Lee]

Sensors' may send tcpip data to server. Each sensor may send tcpip data like a 
stream to the server, the quatity of the sensors and the data rate of the data 
is high.
 
Firstly, how the data from tcpip can be put into hadoop. It need to do some 
process and store in hbase. Does it need through save to data files and put 
into hadoop or can be done in some direct ways from tcpip. Is there any 
software module can take care of this. Searched that Ganglia Nagios and Flume 
may do it. But when looking into details, ganglia and nagios are more for 
monitoring hadoop cluster itself. Flume is for log files.
 
Secondly, if the total network traffic from sensors are over the limit of one 
lan port, how to share the loads, is there any component in hadoop to make this 
done automatically.
 
Any suggestions, thanks.
