Product Information
What is Apache spark?
Apache Spark is a multi-language engine designed for executing data engineering, data science, and machine learning tasks on single-node machines or clusters.
**Key Features**
- **Batch/Stream Processing**: Unify batch and real-time streaming data processing using your preferred language: Python, SQL, Scala, Java, or R.
- **SQL Analytics**: Execute fast, distributed ANSI SQL queries for dashboards and ad-hoc reporting. Runs faster than most data warehouses.
- **Data Science at Scale**: Perform exploratory data analysis (EDA) on petabytes of data without resorting to downsampling.
- **Machine Learning**: Train machine learning algorithms on a laptop and scale the same code to fault-tolerant clusters with thousands of machines.
