I suggest you read

https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/programming-guide.html#resilient-distributed-datasets-rdds
as an introduction, it lists a lot of the transformations and output
operations you can use.
Personally, I also found it quite helpful to read the paper about RDDs:
  http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~matei/papers/2012/nsdi_spark.pdf

OK, someone else might answer that. I am myself confused with application,
job, task, stage etc. ;-)
