Fast Data Processing with Spark

High-speed distributed computing made easy with Spark Overview Implement Spark's interactive shell to prototype distributed applications Deploy Spark jobs to various clusters such as Mesos, EC2, Chef, YARN, EMR, and so on Use Shark's SQL query-like syntax with Spark In Detail Spark is a framework for writing fast, distributed programs. Spark solves similar problems as Hadoop MapReduce does but with a fast in-memory approach and a clean functional style API. With its ability to integrate with Hadoop and inbuilt tools for interactive query analysis (Shark), large-scale graph processing and analysis (Bagel), and real-time analysis (Spark Streaming), it can be interactively used to quickly process and query big data sets.
