Apache Spark overview
- [Instructor] In this video, I will review some of the salient features of Apache Spark. Apache Spark is an open source technology that started out as a more efficient alternative to Hadoop MapReduce. It is a large-scale distributed data processing engine. Spark stores its data primarily in memory to speed up computations. It has also grown to add a number of capabilities like batch processing, real-time streaming, machine learning and graphs. Spark can be programmed with Scala, Java, Python and R. It's performance features and programing support makes it the most popular big-data technology today.
