I did not realized that scala's and java's immutable collections uses different api which causes this. Thank you for reminder. This makes some sense now...

Scala's default collections library is all immutable. list, Vector, Map. This is what people generally use, especially in scala code!

I have to say this is very surprising to me. I never received an advice to stop using an immutable approach. Whole RDD is designed to be immutable (which is sort of sabotaged by not being able to (de)serialize immutable classes properly). I will ask on dev list if this is to be changed or not. Ok, I have let go initial feelings and now let's be pragmatic. And this is still for everyone not just Igor: I use a class from a library which is immutable. Now I want to use this class to represent my data in RDD because this saves me a huge amount of work. The class uses ImmutableList as one of its fields. That's why it fails. But isn't there a way to workaround this? I ask this because I have exactly zero knowledge about kryo and the way how it works. So for example would some of these two work? 1) Change the external class so that it implements writeObject, readObject methods (it's java). Will these methods be used by kryo? (I can ask the maintainers of a library to change the class if the change is reasonable. Adding these methods would be while dropping immutability certainly wouldn' t) 2) Wrap the class to scala class which would translate the data during (de) serialization? Thanks!

I've ended to stop using guava collections as soon as spark rdds are concerned.
