The amount of data being processed in all areas of human activity continues to grow rapidly. Are there effective techniques for working with it? This book describes Apache Spark, an open cluster computing system that allows you to quickly create high-performance data analysis programs. With Spark, you can manipulate huge amounts of data via a simple API on Python, Java and Scala.
Written by Spark developers, this book will help data researchers and programmers quickly engage in work. She tells how to organize parallel execution of tasks with just multiple line of code, and covers examples from simple package applications to streaming data processing programs and using machine learning algorithms
