How can I stream a Map of String and Map using java 8?

I have a Map<Key1, Map<Key2, CustomObject>>. I need go through the Map, check if Key2.equals("a string") and return a Map<Key1, CustomObject>.

Is this possible with java 8? Should it be done with java 8 or is it better with nested for loops?

You can filter the entries of the input Map to keep only entries whose value contains the "a string" key. Then use Collectors.toMap to collect them into a new Map:

Map<Key1, CustomObject> map = 
    inputMap.entrySet()
            .stream()
            .filter(e -> e.getValue().containsKey("a string"))
            .collect(Collectors.toMap(Map.Entry::getKey,
                                      e -> e.getValue().get("a string")));

it also works 

    Map<String, SocialCredentials> collect = configData.getData()
                .entrySet().stream()
                .map(map -> map.getValue()
                        .entrySet().stream()
                        .filter(entry -> 
                            profile.toLowerCase().equals(entry.getKey()))
                        .collect(Collectors.toMap(p -> map.getKey(), 
                                                   Map.Entry::getValue)))
                .collect(HashMap::new, Map::putAll, Map::putAll);

but your solution is more suitable in my case.
