Book Description
Spark juggernaut keeps on rolling and getting more and more momentum each day. Spark provides key capabilities in the form of Spark SQL, Spark Streaming, Spark ML and Graph X all accessible via Java, Scala, Python and R.

The objective of these real life examples is to give the reader confidence of using Spark for real-world problems.
