10. Ingestion through structured streaming

This chapter covers

  • Understanding streaming
  • Building your first streaming ingestions
  • Capturing the various sources of data in streaming
  • Building an application that takes two streams
  • Differentiating discretized streaming and structured streaming

Do you see systems that generate batches of data, or do you see systems that generate data continuously? Systems delivering a flow of data, also known as streams , were less popular a few years ago. Streams are definitely getting more traction, and understanding streams is the focus of this chapter.
