> A core concept of Apache Spark is the resilient distributed dataset (RDD), a "fault-tolerant collection of elements that can be operated on in parallel". One can create a RDDs referencing a dataset in any external storage system offering a Hadoop InputFormat, like HBase's TableInputFormat and TableSnapshotInputFormat. 
> Insure the integration is reasonable and provides good performance. 
> Add the ability to save RDDs back to HBase with a {{saveAsHBaseTable}} action, implicitly creating necessary schema on demand.
> Add support for {{filter}} transformations that push predicates down to the server as HBase filters. 
> Consider supporting conversions between Scala and Java types and HBase data using the HBase types library.
> Consider an option to lazily and automatically produce a snapshot only when needed, in a coordinated way. (Concurrently executing workers may want to materialize a table snapshot RDD at the same time.)
