Pyspark FAQs

  • What is PySpark?

    Apache Spark is an open-source real-time cluster processing framework which is used in streaming analytics systems. Python is an open-source programming language that has a plethora of libraries that support diverse applications. PySpark is an integration of Python and Spark used for Big Data analytics. The Python API for Spark enables programmers to harness the simplicity of Python and the power of Apache Spark.
     

  • How does a beginner learn PySpark?

    PySpark is Python's library to use Spark which handles the complexities of multiprocessing. Simplilearn’s PySpark training course will help you learn everything from scratch and gives you an overview of the Spark stack and lets you know how to leverage the functionality of Python as you deploy it in the Spark ecosystem.

  • What is RDD in PySpark?

    RDD is an abbreviation for Resilient Distributed Dataset, the primary building block of Apache Spark. RDD is a fundamental data structure of Apache Spark, which is a constant distributed collection of objects. Each dataset in an RDD is divided into logical partitions that may be computed on different nodes of the cluster.
     

  • Is PySpark a programming language?

    PySpark is not a programming language. It is a Python API for Apache Spark deployments that Python developers can leverage to create in-memory processing applications. 

  • PySpark vs Scala

    Python and Scala both are the languages used to analyze data using Spark. PySpark is a Python API for Spark used to leverage the simplicity of Python and the power of Apache Spark. Scala is ahead of Python in terms of performance, ease of use, parallelism, and type-safety. On the other hand, Python is more user friendly, has easy syntax, and standard libraries.
