About to sink my teeth into Kafka Streams with an IoT data ingestion architecture and see a lot of SMACK stack examples. However, with Kafka Streams now available is Spark and Akka really required (maybe just no Spark)?

With the information you shared this is a pretty broad question, so please don't mind my giving a perhaps overly broad answer by saying "Yes" -- you can replace Spark and Akka with Kafka's Streams API (and including perhaps Kafka's Connect API, too)" for an ingestion architecture.

PS: I think other SO readers would benefit from narrowing down your question, e.g. by being more explicit about what you are trying to achieve and what your various requirements are.
