Hi Yiming, I believe that both SBT and MVN is supported in SPARK, but SBT is preferred (I'm not 100% sure about this :) ). When I'm using MVN I got some build failures. After that used SBT and works fine.
You can go through these discussions regarding SBT vs MVN and learn pros and cons of both [1] [2].
