Welcome to the Spark Tutorial section! Apache Spark is a powerful, fast, and general-purpose cluster computing system. It is designed to efficiently scale in a distributed computing environment.

Getting Started

To begin your journey with Spark, it's essential to understand its core concepts. Here's a brief overview:

  • Resilient Distributed Datasets (RDDs): The fundamental data structure of Spark.
  • Transformation and Actions: The two main operations you'll perform on RDDs.
  • Spark SQL: For querying data stored in structured formats.

Quick Start Guide

Here's a simple example to get you started:

val lines = sc.textFile("data.txt")
val words = lines.flatMap(_.split(" "))
val wordCounts = words.map(word => (word, 1)).reduceByKey((a, b) => a + b)
wordCounts.saveAsTextFile("output")
