I had a similar inquiry, copied below. I was also looking into making an SQS Receiver reliable: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/30809975/reliable-sqs-receiver-for-spark-streaming
Hope this helps. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Tathagata Das <t...@databricks.com> Date: 20 June 2015 at 17:21 Subject: Re: Serial batching with Spark Streaming To: Michal Čizmazia <mici...@gmail.com> Cc: Binh Nguyen Van <binhn...@gmail.com>, user <user@spark.apache.org> No it does not. By default, only after all the retries etc related to batch X is done, then batch X+1 will be started. Yes, one RDD per batch per DStream. However, the RDD could be a union of multiple RDDs (e.g. RDDs generated by windowed DStream, or unioned DStream).

Does the default scheduler initiate the execution of the *batch X+1* after the *batch X* even if tasks for the* batch X *need to be *retried due to failures*? If not, please could you suggest workarounds and point me to the code? One more thing was not 100% clear to me from the documentation: Is there exactly *1 RDD* published *per a batch interval* in a DStream?
