§ Apache Spark is a fast, general purpose,
easy-to-use cluster computing system for
large-scale data processing
– Fast
• Leverages aggressively cached in-memory
distributed computing and dedicated Executor
processes even when no jobs are running
• Faster than MapReduce
– General purpose
• Covers a wide range of workloads
• Provides SQL, streaming and complex
analytics
– Flexible and easier to use than Map Reduce
• Spark is written in Scala, an object oriented,
functional programming language
• Scala, Java, Python and R
• Scala and Python interactive shells
• Runs on Hadoop, Mesos, standalone or cloud

§ An RDD is a distributed collection of Scala/Python/Java objects of
the same type:
– RDD of strings
– RDD of integers
– RDD of (key, value) pairs
– RDD of class Java/Python/Scala objects
§ An RDD is physically distributed across the cluster, but manipulated
as one logical entity:
– Spark will “distribute” any required processing to all partitions where the RDD
exists and perform necessary redistributions and aggregations as well.
– Example: Consider a distributed RDD “Names” made of names

Names

12
§ Suppose we want to know the number of names in the RDD “Names”
§ User simply requests: Names.count()
– Spark will “distribute” count processing to all partitions so as to obtain:
• Partition 1: Mokhtar(1), Jacques (1), Dirk (1) è 3
• Partition 2: Cindy (1), Dan (1), Susan (1) è 3
• Partition 3: Dirk (1), Frank (1), Jacques (1) è 3
– Local counts are subsequently aggregated: 3+3+3=9
§ To lookup the first element in the RDD: Names.first()
§ To display all elements of the RDD: Names.collect() (careful with this)

13
Resilient Distributed Datasets: Creation and Manipulation
§ Three methods for creation
– Distributing a collection of objects from the driver program (using the
parallelize method of the spark context)
val rddNumbers = sc.parallelize(1 to 10)
val rddLetters = sc.parallelize (List(“a”, “b”, “c”, “d”))
– Loading an external dataset (file)
val quotes = sc.textFile("hdfs:/sparkdata/sparkQuotes.txt")
– Transformation from another existing RDD
val rddNumbers2 = rddNumbers.map(x=> x+1)
§ Dataset from any storage
– CFS, HDFS, Cassandra, Amazon S3
§ File types supported
– Text files, SequenceFiles, Parquet, JSON
– Hadoop InputFormat

14
Resilient Distributed Datasets: Properties
§ Immutable
§ Two types of operations
– Transformations ~ DDL (Create View V2 as…)
• val rddNumbers = sc.parallelize(1 to 10): Numbers from 1 to 10
• val rddNumbers2 = rddNumbers.map (x => x+1): Numbers from 2 to 11
• The LINEAGE on how to obtain rddNumbers2 from rddNumber is recorded
• It’s a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG)
• No actual data processing does take place è Lazy evaluations
– Actions ~ DML (Select * From V2…)
• rddNumbers2.collect(): Array [2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11]
• Performs transformations and action
• Returns a value (or write to a file)
§ Fault tolerance
– If data in memory is lost it will be recreated from lineage
§ Caching, persistence (memory, spilling, disk) and check-pointing

15
RDD Transformations
§ Transformations are lazy evaluations
§ Returns a transformed RDD
§ Pair RDD (K,V) functions for MapReduce style transformations
Transformation Meaning
map(func) Return a new dataset formed by passing each element of the source through a function func.
filter(func) Return a new dataset formed by selecting those elements of the source on which func returns
true.
flatMap(func) Similar to map, but each input item can be mapped to 0 or more output items. So func should
return a Seq rather than a single item
Full documentation at http://spark.apache.org/docs/1.4.1/api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.rdd.PairRDDFunctions
join(otherDataset,
[numTasks])
When called on datasets of type (K, V) and (K, W), returns a dataset of (K, (V, W)) pairs with all
pairs of elements for each key.
reduceByKey(func) When called on a dataset of (K, V) pairs, returns a dataset of (K,V) pairs where the values for
each key are aggregated using the given reduce function func
sortByKey([ascendin
g],[numTasks])
When called on a dataset of (K, V) pairs where K implements Ordered, returns a dataset of (K,V)
pairs sorted by keys in ascending or descending order.
combineByKey[C}(cr
eateCombiner,
mergeValue,
mergeCombiners))
Generic function to combine the elements for each key using a custom set of aggregation
functions. Turns an RDD[(K, V)] into a result of type RDD[(K, C)], for a "combined type" C.
createCombiner: (V) ⇒ C, mergeValue: (C, V) ⇒ C, mergeCombiners: (C, C) ⇒ C)

§ Join, fullOuterJoin, leftOuterJoint, rightOuterJoin, substractByKey
§ keys, values

17
RDD Actions
§ Actions returns values or save a RDD to disk
Action Meaning
collect() Return all the elements of the dataset as an array of the driver program. This
is usually useful after a filter or another operation that returns a sufficiently
small subset of data.
count() Return the number of elements in a dataset.
first() Return the first element of the dataset
take(n) Return an array with the first n elements of the dataset.
foreach(func) Run a function func on each element of the dataset.
saveAsTextFile Save the RDD into a TextFile
Full documentation at http://spark.apache.org/docs/1.4.1/api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.rdd.RDD

18
RDD Persistence
§ Each node stores any partitions of the cache that it computes in memory
§ Reuses them in other actions on that dataset (or datasets derived from it)
– Future actions are much faster (often by more than 10x)
§ Two methods for RDD persistence: persist() and cache()
Storage Level Meaning
MEMORY_ONLY Store as deserialized Java objects in the JVM. If the RDD does not fit in memory, part of
it will be cached. The other will be recomputed as needed. This is the default. The
cache() method uses this.
MEMORY_AND_DISK Same except also store on disk if it doesn’t fit in memory. Read from memory and disk
when needed.
MEMORY_ONLY_SER Store as serialized Java objects (one bye array per partition). Space efficient, but more
CPU intensive to read.
MEMORY_AND_DISK_SER Similar to MEMORY_AND_DISK but stored as serialized objects.
DISK_ONLY Store only on disk.
MEMORY_ONLY_2,
MEMORY_AND_DISK_2,etc.
Same as above, but replicate each partition on two cluster nodes
OFF_HEAP (experimental) Store RDD in serialized format in Tachyon.

About Scala
High-level language for the JVM
● Object oriented + functional programming
Statically typed
● Comparable in speed to Java
● Type inference saves us from having to write
explicit types most of the time
Interoperates with Java
● Can use any Java class (inherit from, etc.)
● Can be called from Java code

22
Quick Tour of Scala
Declaring variables:
var x: Int =
var x = 7 //
val y = “hi”
7
Type inferred
// read-only
String) =
}
def announce(text:
{
println(text)
}
Java equivalent:
int x= 7;
final String y = “hi”;
Functions: Java equivalent:
def square(x: Int): Int = x*x int square(int x) {
def square(x: Int): Int = { return x*x;
x*x }
void announce(String text) {
System.out.println(text);
}

23
Scala functions (closures)
(x: Int) => x + 2 // full version
x => x + 2 //type inferred

24
x => x + 2 // type inferred
_ + 2 // placeholder syntax (each argument must be used
exactly once)

25
exactly once)
x => { // body is a block of code
val numberToAdd = 2
x + numberToAdd
}

26
exactly once)
x => { // body is a block of code
val numberToAdd = 2
x + numberToAdd
}
// Regular functions
def addTwo(x:Int): Int = x + 2

27
Quick Tour of Scala Part 2
Processing collections with functional programming
val list = List(1,2,3)
list.foreach(x => println(x))
list.foreach(println)
// prints 1, 2, 3
// same
list.map(x =>x + 2)
list.map(_ + 2)
// returns a new
// same
List(3, 4, 5)
list.filter(x => x % 2 == 1)// returns a new List(1, 3)
list.filter(_ % 2 == 1) // same
list.reduce((x, y) => x + y) // => 6
list.reduce(_ + _) // same
All of these leave the list unchanged as it is immutable.

28
Functional methods on collections
Method on Seq[T] Explanation
map(f: T => U): Seq[U] Each element is result of f
flatMap(f: T => Seq[U]): Seq[U] One to many map
filter(f: T => Boolean): Seq[T] Keep elements passing f
exists(f: T => Boolean): Boolean True if one element passes f
forall(f: T => Boolean): Boolean True if all elements pass
reduce(f: (T, T) => T): T Merge elements using f
groupBy(f: T => K): Map[K, List[T]] Group elements by f
sortBy(f: T => K): Seq[T] Sort elements
…..
There are a lot of methods on Scala collections, just google Scala Seq or http://www.scala-lang.org/api/2.

Spark DataFrame API + SparkSQL

35
DataFrames
§ A DataFrame is a distributed collection of data organized into named columns. It is
conceptually equivalent to a table in a relational database, an R dataframe or Python Pandas,
but in a distributed manner and with query optimizations and predicate pushdown to the
underlying storage using a DataSource connector.
§ DataFrames can be constructed from a wide array of sources such as: structured data files,
tables in Hive, external databases, or existing RDDs.
§ Released in Spark 1.3

36
DataFrames Examples
// Show the content of the DataFrame (default 100 records, use show(int) for specifying the number)
df.show()
// Print the schema in a tree format
df.printSchema()
// root
// |-‐-‐ age: long (nullable = true)
// |-‐-‐ name: string (nullable = true)
// Select only the "name" column
df.select(df(“name”)).show() // full statement using Column
df.select($”name”).show() // $ is implicit of Column, need import sqlContext.implicits._
df.select("name").show() // use of StringExpression, related to SparkSQL expression
// Select everybody, but increment the age by 1
df.select(df("name"), df("age") + 1).show()
df.select($"name”, $"age” + 1).show()
df.selectExpr(“name”, “age +1”).show()
// Select people older than 21
df.filter(df("age") > 21).show()
df.filter($"age” > 21).show()
df.filter("age > 21”).show()
// Count people by age
df.groupBy("age").count().show()

40
DataFrames - Getting Started
§ SQLContext created from SparkContext
// An existing SparkContext, sc
val sqlContext = new org.apache.spark.sql.SQLContext(sc)
§ HiveContext created from SparkContext (better SQL support)
// An existing SparkContext, sc
val sqlContext = new org.apache.spark.sql.hive.HiveContext(sc)
§ Import a library to convert an RDD to a DataFrame
– Scala:
import sqlContext.implicits._
§ Creating a DataFrame
– From RDD
– Inferring the schema using reflection
– Programmatic Interface
– Using a DataSource connector

41
DataFrames – creating a DataFrame from RDD
§ Infering the Schema using Reflection
– The case class in Scala defines the schema of the table
case class Person(name: String, age: Int)
– The arguments of the case class becomes the names of the columns
– Create the RDD of the Person object and create a DataFrame
val people = sc.textFile
("examples/src/main/resources/people.txt").map(_.split(",")).map(p =>
Person(p(0), p(1).trim.toInt)).toDF()
§ Programmatic Interface
– Schema encoded as a String, import SparkSQL Struct types
val schemaString = “name age”
import org.apache.spark.sql.Row;
import org.apache.spark.sql.types.{StructType,StructField,StringType};
– Create the schema represented by a StructType matching the structure of the
Rows in the RDD from previous step
val schema = StructType( schemaString.split(" ").map(fieldName =>
StructField(fieldName, StringType, true)))
– Apply the schema to the RDD of Rows using the createDataFrame method
val rowRDD = people.map(_.split(",")).map(p => Row(p(0), p(1).trim))
val peopleDataFrame = sqlContext.createDataFrame(rowRDD, schema)

42
DataFrames - DataSources
Spark 1.4+
§ Generic Load/Save
– val df = sqlContext.read.format(“<datasource type>”).options(“<datasource specific option, ie
connection parameters, filename, table,…>”).load(“< datasource specific option, table, filename, or
nothing>”)
– df.write.format(“<datasource type>”).options(“<datasource specific option, ie connection parameters,
filename, table,…>”).save (“< datasource specific option, table, filename, or nothing>”)
§ JSON
– val df = sqlContext.read.load("people.json", "json")
– df.select("name", "age").write.save("namesAndAges.json", “json")
§ CSV (external package)
– val df = sqlContext.read.format("com.databricks.spark.csv").option("header", "true").load("cars.csv")
– df.select("year", "model").write.format("com.databricks.spark.csv").save("newcars.csv")
Spark Cassandra Connector is a DataSource API compliant connector.
DataSource APIs provides generic methods to manage connectors to any
datasource (file, jdbc, cassandra, mongodb, etc…). From Spark 1.3
DataSource APIs provides predicate pushdown capabilities to leverage the
performance of the backend. Most connectors are available at http://spark-
packages.org/

43
Spark SQL
§ Process relational queries expressed in SQL (HiveQL)
§ Seamlessly mix SQL queries with Spark programs
– Register the DataFrame as a table
people.registerTempTable("people")
– Run SQL statements using the sql method provided by the SQLContext
val teenagers = sqlContext.sql("SELECT name FROM people WHERE age >= 13 AND age <=
19")
§ Provide a single interface for working with structured data
including Apache Hive, Parquet, JSON files and any DataSource
§ Leverages Hive frontend and metastore
– Compatibility with Hive data, queries and UDFs
– HiveQL limitations may apply
– Not ANSI SQL compliant
§ Connectivity through JDBC/ODBC using SparkSQL Thrift Server
§ Do Adhoc query / Report using BI Tool
§ Tableau, Cognos, ClickView, Microstrategy, …

49
DataFrame Execution
§ DataFrame API calls are transformed into Physical Plan by Catalyst
§ Catalyst provides numerous optimisation schemes
– Join strategy selection through cost model evaluation
– Operations fusion
– Predicates pushdown to the DataSource
– Code generation to reduce virtual function calls (Spark 1.5)
§ The Physical execution is made as RDDs
§ Benefits are better performance, datasource leverage and consistent
performances accross langages

§ Each Spark application runs as a set of processes coordinated by the
Spark context object (driver program)
– Spark context connects to Cluster Manager (standalone, Mesos/Yarn)
– Spark context acquires executors (JVM instance)
on worker nodes
– Spark context sends tasks to the executors
DataBricks

51
Spark Terminology
§ Context (Connection):
– Represents a connection to the Spark cluster. The Application which initiated
the context can submit one or several jobs, sequentially or in parallel, batch or
interactively, or long running server continuously serving requests.
§ Driver (Coordinator agent)
– The program or process running the Spark context. Responsible for running
jobs over the cluster and converting the App into a set of tasks
§ Job (Query / Query plan):
– A piece of logic (code) which will take some input from HDFS (or the local
filesystem), perform some computations (transformations and actions) and
write some output back.
§ Stage (Subplan)
– Jobs are divided into stages
§ Tasks (Sub section)
– Each stage is made up of tasks. One task per partition. One task is executed
on one partition (of data) by one executor
§ Executor (Sub agent)
– The process responsible for executing a task on a worker node
§ Resilient Distributed Dataset

52
Spark
Shell & Application Deployment

53
Spark’s Scala and Python Shell
§ Spark comes with two shells
– Scala
– Python
§ APIs available for Scala, Python and Java
§ Appropriate versions for each Spark release
§ Spark’s native language is Scala, more natural to write Spark
applications using Scala.
§ This presentation will focus on code examples in Scala

54
Spark’s Scala and Python Shell
§ Powerful tool to analyze data interactively
§ The Scala shell runs on the Java VM
– Can leverage existing Java libraries
§ Scala:
– To launch the Scala shell (from Spark home directory):
dse spark
– To read in a text file:
scala> val textFile =
sc.textFile("file:///Users/vincentponcet/toto")
§ Python:
– To launch the Python shell (from Spark home directory):
dse pyspark
– To read in a text file:
>>> textFile =
sc.textFile("file:///Users/vincentponcet/toto")

55
SparkContext in Applications
§ The main entry point for Spark functionality
§ Represents the connection to a Spark cluster
§ Create RDDs, accumulators, and broadcast variables on that
cluster
§ In the Spark shell, the SparkContext, sc, is automatically initialized
for you to use
§ In a Spark program, import some classes and implicit conversions
into your program:
import org.apache.spark.SparkContext
import org.apache.spark.SparkContext._
import org.apache.spark.SparkConf

Running Standalone Applications
§ Define the dependencies
– Scala à simple.sbt
§ Create the typical directory structure with the files
§ Create a JAR package containing the application’s code.
– Scala: sbt package
§ Use spark-submit to run the program
Scala:
./simple.sbt
./src

Spark Properties
§ Set application properties via the SparkConf object
val conf = new SparkConf()
.setMaster("local")
.setAppName("CountingSheep")
.set("spark.executor.memory", "1g")
val sc = new SparkContext(conf)
§ Dynamically setting Spark properties
– SparkContext with an empty conf
val sc = new SparkContext(new SparkConf())
– Supply the configuration values during runtime
./bin/spark-submit --name "My app" --master local[4] --conf
spark.shuffle.spill=false --conf "spark.executor.extraJavaOptions=-
XX:+PrintGCDetails -XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps" myApp.jar
– conf/spark-defaults.conf

59
Spark Configuration
§ Three locations for configuration:
– Spark properties
– Environment variables
conf/spark-env.sh
– Logging
log4j.properties
§ Override default configuration directory (SPARK_HOME/conf)
– SPARK_CONF_DIR
• spark-defaults.conf
• spark-env.sh
• log4j.properties
• etc.

60
Spark Monitoring
§ Three ways to monitor Spark applications
1. Web UI
• Default port 4040
• Available for the duration of the application
• Jobs and stages metrics, stage execution plan and tasks timeline
2. Metrics API
• Report to a variety of sinks (HTTP, JMX, and CSV)
• /conf/metrics.properties

62
Spark Streaming
§ Scalable, high-throughput, fault-tolerant stream processing of live
data streams
§ Write Spark streaming applications like Spark applications
§ Recovers lost work and operator state (sliding windows) out-of-the-
box
§ Uses HDFS and Zookeeper for high availability
§ Data sources also include TCP sockets, ZeroMQ or other customized
data sources

63
Spark Streaming - Internals
§ The input stream goes into Spark Steaming
§ Breaks up into batches of input data
§ Feeds it into the Spark engine for processing
§ Generate the final results in streams of batches
§ DStream - Discretized Stream
– Represents a continuous stream of data created from the input streams
– Internally, represented as a sequence of RDDs

64
Spark Streaming - Getting Started
§ Count the number of words coming in from the TCP socket
§ Import the Spark Streaming classes
import org.apache.spark._
import org.apache.spark.streaming._
import org.apache.spark.streaming.StreamingContext._
§ Create the StreamingContext object
val conf =
new SparkConf().setMaster("local[2]").setAppName("NetworkWordCount")
val ssc = new StreamingContext(conf, Seconds(1))
§ Create a DStream
val lines = ssc.socketTextStream("localhost", 9999)
§ Split the lines into words
val words = lines.flatMap(_.split(" "))
§ Count the words
val pairs = words.map(word => (word, 1))
val wordCounts = pairs.reduceByKey(_ + _)
§ Print to the console
wordCounts.print()

65
Spark Streaming - Continued
§ No real processing happens until you tell it
ssc.start() // Start the computation
ssc.awaitTermination() // Wait for the computation to terminate
§ Code and application can be found in the NetworkWordCount
example
§ To run the example:
– Invoke netcat to start the data stream
– In a different terminal, run the application
./bin/run-example streaming.NetworkWordCount localhost 9999

66
SparkMLlib
§ SparkMLlib for machine learning
library
§ Since Spark 0.8
§ Provides common algorithms and
utilities
• Classification
• Regression
• Clustering
• Collaborative filtering
• Dimensionality reduction
§ Leverages in-memory cache of Spark
to speed up iteration processing

67
SparkMLlib - Getting Started
§ Use k-means clustering for set of latitudes and longitudes
§ Import the SparkMLlib classes
import org.apache.spark.mllib.clustering.KMeans
import org.apache.spark.mllib.linalg.Vectors
§ Create the SparkContext object
val conf = new SparkConf().setAppName("KMeans")
§ Create a data RDD
val taxifile = sc.textFile("user/spark/sparkdata/nyctaxisub/*")
§ Create Vectors for input to algorithm
val taxi =
taxifile.map{line=>Vectors.dense(line.split(",").slice(3,5).map(_.toDouble))}
§ Run the k-means algorithm with 3 clusters and 10 iterations
val model = Kmeans.train(taxi,3,10)
val clusterCenters = model.clusterCenters.map(_.toArray)
§ Print to the console
clusterCenters.foreach(lines=>println(lines(0),lines(1)))

68
SparkML
§ SparkML provides an API to build ML pipeline (since Spark 1.3)
§ Similar to Python scikit-learn
§ SparkML provides abstraction for all steps of an ML workflow
Generic ML Workflow Real Life ML Workflow
§ Transformer: A Transformer is an algorithm which can transform
one DataFrame into another DataFrame. E.g., an ML model is a
Transformer which transforms an RDD with features into an
RDD with predictions.
§ Estimator: An Estimator is an algorithm which can be fit on a
DataFrame to produce a Transformer. E.g., a learning algorithm
is an Estimator which trains on a dataset and produces a model.
§ Pipeline: A Pipeline chains multiple Transformers and Estimators
together to specify an ML workflow.
§ Param: All Transformers and Estimators now share a common
API for specifying parameters.
