Re: [Spark Streaming on Mesos (good practices)]
Here is the answer to my question if somebody needs it Running Spark in Standalone mode or coarse-grained Mesos mode leads to better task launch times than the fine-grained Mesos mode.

DataFrameWriter.jdbc is very slow
We want to migrate our data (approximately 20M rows) from parquet to postgres, when we are using dataframe writer's jdbc method the execution time is very large, we have tried the same with batch insert it was much effective. Is it intentionally implemented in that way?
Re: How to add a new column with date duration from 2 date columns in a dataframe
Hi, hope this will help you import org.apache.spark.sql.functions._ import sqlContext.implicits._ import java.sql.Timestamp val df = sc.parallelize(Array((date1, date2))).toDF(day1, day2) val dateDiff = udf[Long, Timestamp, Timestamp]((value1, value2) = Days.daysBetween(new DateTime(value2.getTime), new DateTime(value1.getTime)).getDays) df.withColumn(diff, dateDiff(df(day2), df(day1))).show() or you can write sql query using hiveql's datediff function. https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+UDF On Thu, Aug 20, 2015 at 4:57 PM, Dhaval Patel dhaval1...@gmail.com wrote: More update on this question..I am using spark 1.4.1.

[Runing Spark Applications with Chronos or Marathon]
Hi, We want to have Marathon starting and monitoring Chronos, so that when Chronos based Spark job fails, marathon automatically restarts them in scope of Chronos. Will this approach work if we start Spark jobs as shell scripts from Chronos or Marathon?
Parallel actions from driver
Hi. I'm trying to trigger DataFrame's save method in parallel from my driver. For that purposes I use ExecutorService and Futures, here's my code: val futures = [1,2,3].map( t = pool.submit( new Runnable { override def run(): Unit = { val commons = events.filter(_._1 == t).map(_._2.common) saveAsParquetFile(sqlContext, commons, s$t/common) EventTypes.all.foreach { et = val eventData = events.filter(ev = ev._1 == t ev._2.eventType == et).map(_._2.data) saveAsParquetFile(sqlContext, eventData, s$t/$et) } } })) futures.foreach(_.get) It throws Task is not Serializable exception. Is it legal to use threads in driver to trigger actions?
Apache Spark ALS recommendations approach
Trying to build recommendation system using Spark MLLib's ALS. Currently, we're trying to pre-build recommendations for all users on daily basis. We're using simple implicit feedbacks and ALS. The problem is, we have 20M users and 30M products, and to call the main predict() method, we need to have the cartesian join for users and products, which is too huge, and it may take days to generate only the join. Is there a way to avoid cartesian join to make the process faster? Currently we have 8 nodes with 64Gb of RAM, I think it should be enough for the data. val users: RDD[Int] = ??? // RDD with 20M userIds val products: RDD[Int] = ???// RDD with 30M productIds val ratings : RDD[Rating] = ??? // RDD with all user-product feedbacks val model = new ALS().setRank(10).setIterations(10) .setLambda(0.0001).setImplicitPrefs(true) .setAlpha(40).run(ratings) val usersProducts = users.cartesian(products) val recommendations = model.predict(usersProducts)
Re: Apache Spark ALS recommendations approach
Thanks much for your reply. By saying on the fly, you mean caching the trained model, and querying it for each user joined with 30M products when needed? Our question is more about the general approach, what if we have 7M DAU? How the companies deal with that using Spark?

Re: Apache Spark ALS recommendations approach
Thanks gen for helpful post. Thank you Sean, we're currently exploring this world of recommendations with Spark, and your posts are very helpful to us. We've noticed that you're a co-author of Advanced Analytics with Spark, just not to get to deep into offtopic, will it be finished soon? On Wed, Mar 18, 2015 at 5:47 PM, Sean Owen so...@cloudera.com wrote: I don't think that you need memory to put the whole joined data set in memory. However memory is unlikely to be the limiting factor, it's the massive shuffle. OK, you really do have a large recommendation problem if you're recommending for at least 7M users per day! My hunch is that it won't be fast enough to use the simple predict() or recommendProducts() method repeatedly. There was a proposal to make a recommendAll() method which you could crib (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-3066) but that looks like still a work in progress since the point there was to do more work to make it possibly scale. You may consider writing a bit of custom code to do the scoring. For example cache parts of the item-factor matrix in memory on the workers and score user feature vectors in bulk against them. There's a different school of though which is to try to compute only what you need, on the fly, and cache it if you like. That is good in that it doesn't waste effort and makes the result fresh, but, of course, means creating or consuming some other system to do the scoring and getting *that* to run fast. You can also look into techniques like LSH for probabilistically guessing which tiny subset of all items are worth considering, but that's also something that needs building more code. I'm sure a couple people could chime in on that here but it's kind of a separate topic. On Wed, Mar 18, 2015 at 8:04 AM, Aram Mkrtchyan aram.mkrtchyan...@gmail.com wrote: Thanks much for your reply.
