6. Apache
A fast and general engine for large-scale data
processing.
• Really fast MapReduce
• 100x faster than Hadoop MapReduce in memory,
• 10x faster on disk.
• Builds on similar paradigms as MapReduce
• Integrated with Hadoop

8. Getting Started - Launching the console
Open CloudxLab.com to get login/password
Login into Console
Or
• Download
• http://spark.apache.org/downloads.html
• Install python
• (optional) Install Hadoop
Run pyspark

9. SPARK - CONCEPTS - RESILIENT DISTRIBUTED DATASET
A collection of elements partitioned across cluster
• RDD Can be persisted in memory
• RDD Auto recover from node failures
• Can have any data type but has a special dataset type for key-value
• Supports two type of operations: transformation and action
• RDD is read only

10. Convert an existing array into RDD:
myarray = sc.parallelize([1,3,5,6,19, 21]);
SPARK - CONCEPTS - RESILIENT DISTRIBUTED DATASET
Load a file From HDFS:
lines = sc.textFile('/data/mr/wordcount/input/big.txt')
Check first 10 lines:
lines.take(10);
// Does the actual execution of loading and printing 10 lines.

11. SPARK - TRANSFORMATIONS
persist()
cache()

12. SPARK - TRANSFORMATIONS
map(func)
Return a new distributed dataset formed by passing each
element of the source through a function func. Analogous to
foreach of pig.
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
groupByKey
([numTasks])
When called on a dataset of (K, V) pairs, returns a dataset of
(K, Iterable<V>) pairs.
See More: sample, union, intersection, distinct, groupByKey, reduceByKey, sortByKey,join

13. Define a function to convert a line into words:
def toWords(mystr):
wordsArr = mystr.split()
return wordsArr
SPARK - Break the line into words
Check first 10 lines:
words.take(10);
// Does the actual execution of loading and printing 10 lines.
Execute the flatmap() transformation:
words = lines.flatMap(toWords);

14. Define a function to clean & convert to key-value:
import re
def cleanKV(mystr):
mystr = mystr.lower()
mystr = re.sub("[^0-9a-z]", "", mystr) #replace non alphanums with space
return (mystr, 1); # returning a tuple - word & count
SPARK - Cleaning the data
Execute the map() transformation:
cleanWordsKV = words.map(cleanKV);
//passing “clean” function as argument
Check first 10 words pairs:
cleanWordsKV.take(10);
// Does the actual execution of loading and printing 10 lines.

15. SPARK - ACTIONS
Return value to the driver

16. SPARK - ACTIONS
reduce(func)
Aggregate elements of dataset using a function:
• Takes 2 arguments and returns one
• Commutative and associative for parallelism
count() Return the number of elements in the dataset.
collect()
Return all elements of dataset as an array at driver. Used for
small output.
take(n)
Return an array with the first n elements of the dataset.
Not Parallel.
See More: first(), takeSample(), takeOrdered(), saveAsTextFile(path), reduceByKey()
https://spark.apache.org/docs/1.5.0/api/python/pyspark.html#pyspark.RDD

17. Define an aggregation function:
def sum(x, y):
return x+y;
SPARK - Compute the words count
Check first 10 counts:
wordsCount.take(10);
// Does the actual execution of loading and printing 10 lines.
Execute the reduce action:
wordsCount = cleanWordsKV.reduceByKey(sum);
Save:
wordsCount.saveAsTextFile("mynewdirectory");

After taking a shot with his bow, the archer took a bow.INPUT
words = lines.flatMap(toWords);
(After,1) (taking,1) (bow.,1)(his,1)(with,1)(shot,1) (a,1)(a,1) (took,1)(archer,1)(the,1)(bow,,1)
(after,1) (taking,1) (bow,1)(his,1)(with,1)(shot,1) (a,1)(a,1) (took,1)(archer,1)(the,1)(bow,1)
words.reduceByKey(sm)
(after,1) (taking,1)(bow,1) (his,1) (with,1)(shot,1)(a,1)(a,1) (took,1)(archer,1) (the,1)(bow,1)
