Scala Spark-like RDD for D?

[data pulverizer via Digitalmars-d-learn]

Are there are any plans to create a scala spark-like RDD class 
for D 
(https://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~matei/papers/2012/nsdi_spark.pdf)? 
This is a powerful model that has taken the data science world by 
storm; it would be useful to have something like this in the D 
world. Most of the algorithms in statistics/data science are 
iterative in nature which fits well with this kind of data model.

I read through the Kind Of Container thread which has some 
relationship with this issue 
(https://forum.dlang.org/thread/n07rh8$dmb$1@digitalmars.com). It 
looks like Immutability would be the way to go for an RDD data 
structure. But I am not wedded to any model as long as we can 
have something that performs the same functionality as the RDD.

As an alternative are there plans for parallel/cluster computing 
frameworks for D?

Apologies if I am kicking a hornet's nest. It is not my intention.

Thanks
