Updated Spark Streaming Programming Guide
Here is the updated version of the Spark Streaming Programming Guide. This is still a work in progress, but the major changes are in place. So feedback is most welcome.
In general, I have tried to make the guide to easier to understand even if the reader does not know much about Spark. The updated website is hosted here -
http://www.eecs.berkeley.edu/~tdas/spark_docs/streaming-programming-guide.html
The major changes are:
- Overview illustrates the usecases of Spark Streaming - various input sources and various output sources
- An example right after overview to quickly give an idea of what Spark Streaming program looks like
- Made Java API and examples a first class citizen like Scala by using tabs to show both Scala and Java examples (similar to AMPCamp tutorial's code tabs)
- Highlighted the DStream operations updateStateByKey and transform because of their powerful nature
- Updated driver node failure recovery text to highlight automatic recovery in Spark standalone mode
- Added information about linking and using the external input sources like Kafka and Flume
- In general, reorganized the sections to better show the Basic section and the more advanced sections like Tuning and Recovery.
Todos:
- Links to the docs of external Kafka, Flume, etc
- Illustrate window operation with figure as well as example.
