Morning, please im looking at writing a real time video stream application. mobile + server(kotlin) + web But I'm not sure on what will be an ideal path to follow, ive read a few things on kafka + spark(awesome stuff), but I think, they probably don't address my need or are overly complex for what I want to achieve.. I was hoping I could get a little heads up.
g
why do you concider kafka/spark? I believe they are too complicated itself, I would write some more conventional rest service (which can do something interesting, not only CRUD)
s
kafka is not complicated but I don`t see what kafka and spark has in common with video streaming

Okay, thanks I think I missed the bit where it talks about streaming any sort of data. And I sort of like the idea of producers and consumers. Thus, what I want is, different amount of users can be doing a live stream while different amount of users can also be streaming the video live.
