If Spark Streaming could get closer to realtime there would be more interesting 
prospects here. But as it is,
in most use cases the discritization window is going to mean more latency than 
you want to have for handling
requests.

There are still some interesting analytics use cases in pushing http traffic 
into Spark Streaming. Some
process-heavy API systems might be able to do full request/response handling 
chiefly via Spark Streaming. There
is a reciprocal quesiton fo how to get data back to Jetty.

Mongrel2 and Ilya's article "Building a Modern [front-end routed] Web Stack" 
both come to mind-

To really get deeply into the Realtime web-stack, we'd need to see Spark 
Streaming emerge some
closer-to-realtime/immediate-handling methods.
