Spark is a cluster computing platform designed to be fast and general purpose. <\/p>\n

Spark provides a simple and expressive programming model that supports a wide range of applications, including ETL, machine learning, stream processing, and graph computations. <\/p>\n

Spark has a well-defined and documented architecture that is easy to extend. The core of Spark is a resilient distributed dataset (RDD), which is a collection of items that can be divided across a cluster of machines. <\/p>\n

RDDs are immutable and partitioned, and can be operated on in parallel. Spark also has a efficient shuffle operation that can be used to redistribute data for join operations or aggregations.<\/p>\n
