abstract class DStream[T] extends Serializable with Logging

A Discretized Stream (DStream), the basic abstraction in Spark Streaming, is a continuous sequence of RDDs (of the same type) representing a continuous stream of data (see org.apache.spark.rdd.RDD in the Spark core documentation for more details on RDDs). DStreams can either be created from live data (such as, data from TCP sockets, Kafka, etc.) using a org.apache.spark.streaming.StreamingContext or it can be generated by transforming existing DStreams using operations such as map, window and reduceByKeyAndWindow. While a Spark Streaming program is running, each DStream periodically generates a RDD, either from live data or by transforming the RDD generated by a parent DStream.

This class contains the basic operations available on all DStreams, such as map, filter and window. In addition, org.apache.spark.streaming.dstream.PairDStreamFunctions contains operations available only on DStreams of key-value pairs, such as groupByKeyAndWindow and join. These operations are automatically available on any DStream of pairs (e.g., DStream[(Int, Int)] through implicit conversions.

A DStream internally is characterized by a few basic properties:

  • A list of other DStreams that the DStream depends on
  • A time interval at which the DStream generates an RDD
  • A function that is used to generate an RDD after each time interval

    Return a new DStream in which each RDD has a single element generated by reducing all elements in a sliding window over this DStream. However, the reduction is done incrementally using the old window's reduced value :

    1. reduce the new values that entered the window (e.g., adding new counts) 2. "inverse reduce" the old values that left the window (e.g., subtracting old counts) This is more efficient than reduceByWindow without "inverse reduce" function.
