Hi Rishi,

Spark and Flint are useful during the data engineering phase, but you'd need to look elsewhere after that. I'm not aware of any active Spark-native project to do ML/forecast on time series data.

If the data that you want to train the model on can fit in one node's memory, you can use libs and models like ARIMA, Prophet, or LSTM-based NN to train a model and use them for forecasting. You can then use Spark to parallelize the grid search over the space of hyperparameters to get the optimal model faster, as the grid search would be a perfectly-parallel job (a.k.a, embarrassingly parallel). I gave a talk on this which you may find useful: https://www.analytical.works/Talk-spark-ml.html

Hi All,

Checking in to see if anyone had input around time series libraries using Spark. I in interested in financial forecasting model & regression mainly at this  point. Input is a bunch of pricing data points.

I have read a lot of spark-timeseries and flint libraries but I am not sure of the best way/use cases to use these libraries for or if there's any other preferred way of tackling time series problems at scale.

Thanks,
-Shraddha

    Thanks Jorn. I am interested in timeseries forecasting for now but
    in general I was unable to find a good way to work with different
    time series methods using spark..

        Time series can mean a lot of different things and algorithms.
        Can you describe more what you mean by time series use case,
        ie what is the input, what do you like to do with the input
        and what is the output?
