Stream processing with Apache Spark : mastering structured streaming and Spark streaming

Before you can build analytics tools to gain quick insights, you first need to know how to process data in real time. With this practical guide, developers familiar with Apache Spark will learn how to put this in-memory framework to use for streaming data. You’ll discover how Spark enables you to write streaming jobs in almost the same way you write batch jobs. Authors Gerard Maas and François Garillot help you explore the theoretical underpinnings of Apache Spark. This comprehensive guide features two sections that compare and contrast the streaming APIs Spark now supports: the original Spark Streaming library and the newer Structured Streaming API. • Learn fundamental stream processing concepts and examine different streaming architectures • Explore Structured Streaming through practical examples; learn different aspects of stream processing in detail • Create and operate streaming jobs and applications with Spark Streaming; integrate Spark Streaming with other Spark APIs • Learn advanced Spark Streaming techniques, including approximation algorithms and machine learning algorithms • Compare Apache Spark to other stream processing projects, including Apache Storm, Apache Flink, and Apache Kafka Streams Before you can build analytics tools to gain quick insights, you first need to know how to process data in real time.

Fortunately, the Spark in-memory framework/platform for processing data has added an extension devoted to fault-tolerant stream processing: Spark Streaming. If you're familiar with Apache Spark and want to learn how to implement it for streaming jobs, this practical book is a must. Understand how Spark Streaming fits in the big picture Learn core concepts such as Spark RDDs, Spark Streaming clusters, and the fundamentals of a DStream Discover how to create a robust deployment Dive into streaming algorithmics Learn how to tune, measure, and monitor Spark Streaming Annotation To build analytics tools that provide faster insights, knowing how to process data in real time is a must, and moving from batch processing to stream processing is absolutely required.
