title: Sending Spark streaming metrics to open tsdb
body: <p>How can I send metrics from my spark streaming job to open tsdb database? I am trying to use open tsdb as data source in Grafana. Can you please help me with some references where I can start. </p>
  
  <p>I do see open tsdb reporter here which does similar job. How can I integrate the metrics from Spark streaming job to use this? Is there any easy options to do it. </p>
