Ps: that book is now behind the curve in a quite a few areas since the release

Subject: Receiver Fault Tolerance

 

In the O'reilly book Learning Spark Chapter 10 section 24/7 Operation 

 

It talks about 'Receiver Fault Tolerance'

 

I'm unsure of what a Receiver is here, from reading it sounds like when you 
submit an application to the cluster in cluster mode i.e. --deploy-mode cluster 
the driver program will run on a Worker and this case this Worker is seen as a 
Receiver because it is consuming messages from the source.

 

 

Is the above understanding correct? or is there more to it?
