spark streaming disk hit

Is it fair to say that Storm stream processing is completely in memory, whereas spark streaming would take a disk hit because of how shuffle works?

Does spark streaming try to avoid disk usage out of the box?

Most shuffle files are really kept around in the OS's buffer/disk cache, so
it is still pretty much in memory. If you are concerned about performance,
you have to do a holistic comparison for end-to-end performance. You could
take a look at this.
