Is there anyway to access the Data Frames content directly/interactively via some client access APIs?  Some background info:

1. We have a Java client application that uses spark launcher to submit
   a spark job to a spark master.
2. The default spark launcher API has only a handle API that provides
   job status information
3. It is possible to use the Hive JDBC to access data via the built-in
   thrifty server, but the data have to be saved into hive tables, not
   sure if these tables have to be persisted on disk and require huge
   overhead for data I/O.  Since DF is in memory, it would be more
   convenient and faster to access the data directly in memory if such
   APIs are available.

Thanks!  -- ND
