Spark supports two deploy modes. Spark applications may run with the
driver inside the client process or entirely inside the cluster.
-The spark-submit script described in the [cluster mode
overview](cluster-overview.html) provides the most straightforward way to
submit a compiled Spark application to the cluster in either deploy mode. For
info on the lower-level invocations used to launch an app inside the cluster,
read ahead.

-## Launching Applications Inside the Cluster
+ main-class: The entry point for your application (e.g.
org.apache.spark.examples.SparkPi)
+ master-url: The URL of the master node (e.g.
spark://23.195.26.187:7077)
+ deploy-mode: Whether to deploy this application within the cluster or
from an external client (e.g. client)
+ application-jar: Path to a bundled jar including your application and
all dependencies. The URL must be globally visible inside of your cluster, for
instance, an `hdfs://` path or a `file://` path that is present on all nodes.
+ application-arguments: Arguments passed to the main method of
<main-class>

+Behind the scenes, this invokes the standalone Client to launch your
application, which is also the legacy way to launch your application before
