Spark 1.0.0 - Java 8
Great News ! I've been awaiting this release to start doing some coding with Spark using Java 8. Can I run Spark 1.0 examples on a virtual host with 16 GB ram and fair descent amount of hard disk ? Or do I reaaly need to use a cluster of machines. Second, are there any good exmaples of using MLIB on Spark. Please shoot me in the right direction.

Spark 1.0.0 is a milestone release as the first in the 1.0 line of releases, providing API stability for Spark's core interfaces. Spark 1.0.0 is Spark's largest release ever, with contributions from 117 developers. I'd like to thank everyone involved in this release - it was truly a community effort with fixes, features, and optimizations contributed from dozens of organizations. This release expands Spark's standard libraries, introducing a new SQL package (SparkSQL) which lets users integrate SQL queries into existing Spark workflows. MLlib, Spark's machine learning library, is expanded with sparse vector support and several new algorithms. The GraphX and Streaming libraries also introduce new features and optimizations. Spark's core engine adds support for secured YARN clusters, a unified tool for submitting Spark applications, and several performance and stability improvements. Finally, Spark adds support for Java 8 lambda syntax and improves coverage of the Java and Python API's. Those features only scratch the surface - check out the release notes here: http://spark.apache.org/releases/spark-release-1-0-0.html Note that since release artifacts were posted recently, certain mirrors may not have working downloads for a few hours. - Patrick

With respect to virtual hosts, my team uses Vagrant/Virtualbox. We have 3 CentOS VMs with 4 GB RAM each - 2 worker nodes and a master node. Everything works fine, though if you are using MapR, you have to make sure they are all on the same subnet. -Suren On Fri, May 30, 2014 at 12:20 PM, Upender Nimbekar upent...@gmail.com wrote: Great News !

Also, the Spark examples can run out of the box on a single machine, as well as a cluster.
