It is not a bad idea. Many people use this approach. Mohammed

We are developing an application that allows the user to analyze various sources of information. We are dealing with non-technical users, so simply giving them and interactive shell won't do the trick. To allow the users to execute queries, I have considered writing a Spark application that exposes a RESTful api and runs on our cluster. This application will execute the queries on demand on different threads. We need to serve a few thousand users. I should mention that I've looked into Spark Job-Server too, it looks promising however it's not quite what we are looking for. I wanted to here your input on this solution, and maybe if you can suggest a better one. Thank you. -- View this message in context: http://apache-spark-user-list.1001560.n3.nabble.com/Spark-application-with-a-RESTful-API-tp23654.html Sent from the Apache Spark User List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
