We have a complex application that runs productively for couple of months and heavily uses spark in scala. Just to give you some insight on complexity - we do not have such a huge source data (only about 500'000 complex elements), but we have more than a billion transformations and

Why would you create a class and then instantiate it to store data and change the class every time you have to add a new element? In OOPS terminology a class represents an object, and an object has states - does it not? Purely from a data warehousing perspective - one of the fundamental

We have had excellent results operating on RDDs using Java 8 with Lambdas. It’s slightly more verbose than Scala, but I haven’t found this an issue, and haven’t missed any functionality. The new DataFrame API makes the Spark platform even more language agnostic. Tristan On 15 July 2015 at
