MLlib is Spark's machine learning (ML) library.
Its goal is to make practical machine learning scalable and easy.
At a high level, it provides tools such as:
2016-07-15 16:38:23 -04:00
* ML Algorithms: common learning algorithms such as classification, regression, clustering, and collaborative filtering
* Featurization: feature extraction, transformation, dimensionality reduction, and selection
* Pipelines: tools for constructing, evaluating, and tuning ML Pipelines
* Persistence: saving and load algorithms, models, and Pipelines
* Utilities: linear algebra, statistics, data handling, etc.

**The MLlib RDD-based API is now in maintenance mode.**
As of Spark 2.0, the [RDD](rdd-programming-guide.html#resilient-distributed-datasets-rdds)-based APIs in the `spark.mllib` package have entered maintenance mode.
2016-07-15 16:38:23 -04:00
The primary Machine Learning API for Spark is now the [DataFrame](sql-programming-guide.html)-based API in the `spark.ml` package.

* MLlib will still support the RDD-based API in `spark.mllib` with bug fixes.
* MLlib will not add new features to the RDD-based API.
* In the Spark 2.x releases, MLlib will add features to the DataFrames-based API to reach feature parity with the RDD-based API.

* DataFrames provide a more user-friendly API than RDDs. The many benefits of DataFrames include Spark Datasources, SQL/DataFrame queries, Tungsten and Catalyst optimizations, and uniform APIs across languages.
* The DataFrame-based API for MLlib provides a uniform API across ML algorithms and across multiple languages.
* DataFrames facilitate practical ML Pipelines, particularly feature transformations. See the [Pipelines guide](ml-pipeline.html) for details.

*What is "Spark ML"?*
* "Spark ML" is not an official name but occasionally used to refer to the MLlib DataFrame-based API.
This is majorly due to the `org.apache.spark.ml` Scala package name used by the DataFrame-based API,
and the "Spark ML Pipelines" term we used initially to emphasize the pipeline concept.
*Is MLlib deprecated?*
* No. MLlib includes both the RDD-based API and the DataFrame-based API.
The RDD-based API is now in maintenance mode.
But neither API is deprecated, nor MLlib as a whole.

MLlib uses the linear algebra package [Breeze](http://www.scalanlp.org/), which depends on
[netlib-java](https://github.com/fommil/netlib-java) for optimised numerical processing.
If native libraries[^1] are not available at runtime, you will see a warning message and a pure JVM
implementation will be used instead.

Due to licensing issues with runtime proprietary binaries, we do not include `netlib-java`'s native
proxies by default.
To configure `netlib-java` / Breeze to use system optimised binaries, include
`com.github.fommil.netlib:all:1.1.2` (or build Spark with `-Pnetlib-lgpl`) as a dependency of your
project and read the [netlib-java](https://github.com/fommil/netlib-java) documentation for your
platform's additional installation instructions.

The most popular native BLAS such as [Intel MKL](https://software.intel.com/en-us/mkl), [OpenBLAS](http://www.openblas.net), can use multiple threads in a single operation, which can conflict with Spark's execution model.
Configuring these BLAS implementations to use a single thread for operations may actually improve performance (see [SPARK-21305](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-21305)). It is usually optimal to match this to the number of cores each Spark task is configured to use, which is 1 by default and typically left at 1.
Please refer to resources like the following to understand how to configure the number of threads these BLAS implementations use: [Intel MKL](https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/recommended-settings-for-calling-intel-mkl-routines-from-multi-threaded-applications) or [Intel oneMKL](https://software.intel.com/en-us/onemkl-linux-developer-guide-improving-performance-with-threading) and [OpenBLAS](https://github.com/xianyi/OpenBLAS/wiki/faq#multi-threaded). Note that if nativeBLAS is not properly configured in system, java implementation(f2jBLAS) will be used as fallback option.

# Highlights in 3.0
The list below highlights some of the new features and enhancements added to MLlib in the `3.0`
release of Spark:
* Multiple columns support was added to `Binarizer` ([SPARK-23578](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-23578)), `StringIndexer` ([SPARK-11215](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-11215)), `StopWordsRemover` ([SPARK-29808](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-29808)) and PySpark `QuantileDiscretizer` ([SPARK-22796](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-22796)).

[SPARK-29052][DOCS][ML][PYTHON][CORE][R][SQL][SS] Create a Migration Guide tap in Spark documentation ### What changes were proposed in this pull request? Currently, there is no migration section for PySpark, SparkCore and Structured Streaming. It is difficult for users to know what to do when they upgrade. This PR proposes to create create a "Migration Guide" tap at Spark documentation. ![Screen Shot 2019-09-11 at 7 02 05 PM](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/6477701/64688126-ad712f80-d4c6-11e9-8672-9a2c56c05bf8.png) ![Screen Shot 2019-09-11 at 7 27 15 PM](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/6477701/64689915-389ff480-d4ca-11e9-8c54-7f46095d0d23.png) This page will contain migration guides for Spark SQL, PySpark, SparkR, MLlib, Structured Streaming and Core. Basically it is a refactoring. There are some new information added, which I will leave a comment inlined for easier review. 1. **MLlib** Merge [ml-guide.html#migration-guide](https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/ml-guide.html#migration-guide) and [ml-migration-guides.html](https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/ml-migration-guides.html) ``` 'docs/ml-guide.md' ↓ Merge new/old migration guides 'docs/ml-migration-guide.md' ``` 2. **PySpark** Extract PySpark specific items from https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/sql-migration-guide-upgrade.html ``` 'docs/sql-migration-guide-upgrade.md' ↓ Extract PySpark specific items 'docs/pyspark-migration-guide.md' ``` 3. **SparkR** Move [sparkr.html#migration-guide](https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/sparkr.html#migration-guide) into a separate file, and extract from [sql-migration-guide-upgrade.html](https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/sql-migration-guide-upgrade.html) ``` 'docs/sparkr.md' 'docs/sql-migration-guide-upgrade.md' Move migration guide section ↘ ↙ Extract SparkR specific items docs/sparkr-migration-guide.md ``` 4. **Core** Newly created at `'docs/core-migration-guide.md'`. I skimmed resolved JIRAs at 3.0.0 and found some items to note. 5. **Structured Streaming** Newly created at `'docs/ss-migration-guide.md'`. I skimmed resolved JIRAs at 3.0.0 and found some items to note. 6. **SQL** Merged [sql-migration-guide-upgrade.html](https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/sql-migration-guide-upgrade.html) and [sql-migration-guide-hive-compatibility.html](https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/sql-migration-guide-hive-compatibility.html) ``` 'docs/sql-migration-guide-hive-compatibility.md' 'docs/sql-migration-guide-upgrade.md' Move Hive compatibility section ↘ ↙ Left over after filtering PySpark and SparkR items 'docs/sql-migration-guide.md' ``` ### Why are the changes needed? In order for users in production to effectively migrate to higher versions, and detect behaviour or breaking changes before upgrading and/or migrating. ### Does this PR introduce any user-facing change? Yes, this changes Spark's documentation at https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/index.html. ### How was this patch tested? Manually build the doc. This can be verified as below: ```bash cd docs SKIP_API=1 jekyll build open _site/index.html ``` Closes #25757 from HyukjinKwon/migration-doc.
