> Manning Publications is developing a book Spark in Action written by Marko
> Bonaci and Petar Zecevic (http://www.manning.com/bonaci) and it would be
> great if the book could be added to the list of books at the official Spark
> Webpage (https://spark.apache.org/documentation.html).
> This book teaches readers to use Spark for stream and batch data processing.
> It starts with an introduction to the Spark architecture and ecosystem
> followed by a taste of Spark's command line interface. Readers then discover
> the most fundamental concepts and abstractions of Spark, particularly
> Resilient Distributed Datasets (RDDs) and the basic data transformations that
> RDDs provide. The first part of the book also introduces you to writing Spark
> applications using the the core APIs. Next, you learn about different Spark
> components: how to work with structured data using Spark SQL, how to process
> near-real time data with Spark Streaming, how to apply machine learning
> algorithms with Spark MLlib, how to apply graph algorithms on graph-shaped
> data using Spark GraphX, and a clear introduction to Spark clustering.
> The book is already available to the public as a part of our Manning Early
> Access Program (MEAP) where we deliver chapters to the public as soon as they
> are written. We believe it will offer significant support to the Spark users
> and the community.
