@Sivakumaran when you say create a web socket object in your spark code I assume you meant a spark "task" opening websocket connection from one of the worker machines to some node.js server in that case the websocket connection terminates after the spark task is completed right ? and when new data comes in a new task gets created and opens a new websocket connection again…is that how it should be?

You create a websocket object in your dashboard code and receive the data in realtime and update the dashboard. You can use Node.js in your dashboard ( socket.io ). I am sure there are other ways too. Does that help?

This technology essentially allows your web page to keep an active line of communication between the client and server, in which case you can detect and display new information without requiring any user input of page refreshes. The link below contains additional information on this concept, as well as links to several different implementations (based on your programming language preferences). https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/WebSockets_API Hope this helps! - Kevin On Wed, Aug 24, 2016 at 3:52 PM, kant kodali < kanth...@gmail.com > wrote: ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: kant kodali < kanth...@gmail.com > Date: Wed, Aug 24, 2016 at 1:49 PM Subject: quick question To: d...@spark.apache.org , us...@spark.apache.org <attachment-1.png> In this picture what does "Dashboards" really mean? is there a open source project which can allow me to push the results back to Dashboards such that Dashboards are always in sync with real time updates? (a push based solution is better than poll but i am open to whatever is possible given the above picture)
