Abstract

When it comes to working with Spark or building Spark applications, there are many options. This chapter describes the three common options, including using Spark shell, submitting a Spark application from the command line, and using a hosted cloud platform called Databricks. The last part of this chapter is geared toward software engineers who want to set up Apache Spark source code on a local machine to study Spark source code and learn how certain features were implemented.
