I have reduced some data down to a simple count value (by window), and would like to take immediate action on that value before storing in HDFS. I don't see any DStream member functions that would allow me to access its contents. Is what I am trying to do not in the spirit of Spark Streaming? If it's not, what would be the best practice for doing so? Thanks so much! Fred
