YARN, Mesos, Spark, Amazon EC2 ⇒ It can use Hadoop but also works standalone! Task scheduling and monitoring Rich APIs APIs for Java, Scala, Python, R Thrift JDBC/ODBC server for SQL High-level domain-specific tools/languages Advanced APIs simplify typical computation tasks Interactive shells with tight integration spark-shell: Scala (object-oriented functional language running on JVM) pyspark: Python sparkR: R (basic support) Execution in either local (
