Yes, but i need to read from cassandra db within a spark
transformation..something like..

dstream.forachRDD{

rdd=> rdd.foreach {
 message =>
     sc.cassandraTable()
      .
      .
      .
    }
}

Since rdd.foreach gets executed on workers, how can i make sparkContext
available on workers ???

Regards,
Padma Ch
