Hi TD, I have been able to filter the first WindowedRDD, but I am not sure how to make a generic filter. The larger window is 8 seconds and want to fetch 4 second based on application-time-stamp. I have seen an earlier post which suggest timeStampBasedwindow but I am not sure how to make timestampBasedwindow in the following example.
val transformed = keyAndValues.window(Seconds(8), Seconds(4)).transform(windowedRDD => { //val timeStampBasedWindow = ??? // define the window over the timestamp that you want to process val filteredRDD = windowedRDD.filter(_._1 < 4) // filter and retain only the records that fall in the timestamp-based window return filteredRDD }) Consider the input tuples as (1,23),(1.2,34) . . . . . (3.8,54)(4,413) . . . whereas key is the timestamp. Regards, Laeeq On Saturday, July 12, 2014 8:29 PM, Laeeq Ahmed <laeeqsp...@yahoo.com> wrote: Hi, Thanks I will try to implement it.

Queue stream is useful for testing with generated RDDs, but not for actual data. For actual data stream, the slack time can be implemented by doing DStream.window on a larger window that take slack time in consideration, and then the required application-time-based-window of data filtered out. For example, if you want a slack time of 1 minute and batches of 10 seconds, then do a window operation of 70 seconds, then in each RDD filter out the records with the desired application time and process them.
