Apache Spark

Spark is a fast and general cluster computing system for Big Data. It provides high-level APIs in Scala, Java, and Python, and an optimized engine that supports general computation graphs for data analysis. It also supports a rich set of higher-level tools including Spark SQL for SQL and structured data processing, MLLib for machine learning, GraphX for graph processing, and Spark Streaming.

Online Documentation

You can find the latest Spark documentation, including a programming guide, on the project webpage at http://spark.apache.org/documentation.html. This README file only contains basic setup instructions.

Building Spark

Spark is built on Scala 2.10. To build Spark and its example programs, run:

./sbt/sbt assembly

(You do not need to do this if you downloaded a pre-built package.)

Interactive Scala Shell

The easiest way to start using Spark is through the Scala shell:

./bin/spark-shell

Try the following command, which should return 1000:

scala> sc.parallelize(1 to 1000).count()

Interactive Python Shell

Alternatively, if you prefer Python, you can use the Python shell:

./bin/pyspark

And run the following command, which should also return 1000:

>>> sc.parallelize(range(1000)).count()

Example Programs

Spark also comes with several sample programs in the examples directory. To run one of them, use ./bin/run-example <class> [params]. For example:

./bin/run-example SparkPi

will run the Pi example locally.

You can set the MASTER environment variable when running examples to submit examples to a cluster. This can be a mesos:// or spark:// URL, "yarn-cluster" or "yarn-client" to run on YARN, and "local" to run locally with one thread, or "local[N]" to run locally with N threads. You can also use an abbreviated class name if the class is in the examples package. For instance:

MASTER=spark://host:7077 ./bin/run-example SparkPi

Many of the example programs print usage help if no params are given.

Running Tests

Testing first requires building Spark. Once Spark is built, tests can be run using:

./sbt/sbt test

A Note About Hadoop Versions

Spark uses the Hadoop core library to talk to HDFS and other Hadoop-supported storage systems. Because the protocols have changed in different versions of Hadoop, you must build Spark against the same version that your cluster runs. You can change the version by setting -Dhadoop.version when building Spark.

For Apache Hadoop versions 1.x, Cloudera CDH MRv1, and other Hadoop versions without YARN, use:

# Apache Hadoop 1.2.1
$ sbt/sbt -Dhadoop.version=1.2.1 assembly

# Cloudera CDH 4.2.0 with MapReduce v1
$ sbt/sbt -Dhadoop.version=2.0.0-mr1-cdh4.2.0 assembly

For Apache Hadoop 2.2.X, 2.1.X, 2.0.X, 0.23.x, Cloudera CDH MRv2, and other Hadoop versions with YARN, also set -Pyarn:

# Apache Hadoop 2.0.5-alpha
$ sbt/sbt -Dhadoop.version=2.0.5-alpha -Pyarn assembly

# Cloudera CDH 4.2.0 with MapReduce v2
$ sbt/sbt -Dhadoop.version=2.0.0-cdh4.2.0 -Pyarn assembly

# Apache Hadoop 2.2.X and newer
$ sbt/sbt -Dhadoop.version=2.2.0 -Pyarn assembly

When developing a Spark application, specify the Hadoop version by adding the "hadoop-client" artifact to your project's dependencies. For example, if you're using Hadoop 1.2.1 and build your application using SBT, add this entry to libraryDependencies:

"org.apache.hadoop" % "hadoop-client" % "1.2.1"

If your project is built with Maven, add this to your POM file's <dependencies> section:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.apache.hadoop</groupId>
  <artifactId>hadoop-client</artifactId>
  <version>1.2.1</version>
</dependency>

Configuration

Please refer to the Configuration guide in the online documentation for an overview on how to configure Spark.
