In my experience parameter passing between R, scala, Spark SQL SparkR worked great in rZeppelin.
I could successfully build a model using SparkR's GLM algorithm, done a prediction using the model, then I could create a SparkR datafarme from the predicted dataset. Then used the same to visualize the data using R's visualization library. I used rZeppelin for the same. Regards, Sourav On Thu, Dec 24, 2015 at 11:01 AM, Amos B.
