I'm curious - I'm not sure if I understand you correctly. With SparkR, the work 
is distributed in Spark and computed in R, isn't that what your are looking for?
SparkR was on rJava for the R-JVM but moved away from it.
 
rJava has a component called JRI which allows JVM to call R.
You could call R with JRI or through rdd.forEachPartition(pass_data_to_R) or 
rdd.pipe

Subject: Re: Streaming anomaly detection using ARIMA
To: user@spark.apache.org

Surprised I haven't gotten any responses about this. Has anyone tried using 
rJava or FastR w/ Spark? I've seen the SparkR project but thta goes the other 
way- what I'd like to do is use R for model calculation and Spark to distribute 
the load across the cluster.
Also, has anyone used Scalation for ARIMA models?

Taking out the complexity of the ARIMA models to simplify things- I can't seem 
to find a good way to represent even standard moving averages in spark 
streaming. Perhaps it's my ignorance with the micro-batched style of the 
DStreams API.

I want to use ARIMA for a predictive model so that I can take time series data 
(metrics) and perform a light anomaly detection. The time series data is going 
to be bucketed to different time units (several minutes within several hours, 
several hours within several days, several days within several years.
I want to do the algorithm in Spark Streaming. I'm used to "tuple at a time" 
streaming and I'm having a tad bit of trouble gaining insight into how exactly 
the windows are managed inside of DStreams.
Let's say I have a simple dataset that is marked by a key/value tuple where the 
key is the name of the component who's metrics I want to run the algorithm 
against and the value is a metric (a value representing a sum for the time 
bucket. I want to create histograms of the time series data for each key in the 
windows in which they reside so I can use that histogram vector to generate my 
ARIMA prediction (actually, it seems like this doesn't just apply to ARIMA but 
could apply to any sliding average). 
I *think* my prediction code may look something like this:
val predictionAverages = dstream  .groupByKeyAndWindow(60*60*24, 60*60*24)
  .mapValues(applyARIMAFunction)
That is, keep 24 hours worth of metrics in each window and use that for the 
ARIMA prediction. The part I'm struggling with is how to join together the 
actual values so that i can do my comparison against the prediction model. 

Let's say dstream contains the actual values. For any time  window, I should be 
able to take a previous set of windows and use model to compare against the 
current values.
