Sean Owen 165e06a74c SPARK-1057 (alternative) Remove fastutil
(This is for discussion at this point -- I'm not suggesting this should be committed.)

This is what removing fastutil looks like. Much of it is straightforward, like using `java.io` buffered stream classes, and Guava for murmurhash3.

Uses of the `FastByteArrayOutputStream` were a little trickier. In only one case though do I think the change to use `java.io` actually entails an extra array copy.

The rest is using `OpenHashMap` and `OpenHashSet`.  These are now written in terms of more scala-like operations.

`OpenHashMap` is where I made three non-trivial changes to make it work, and they need review:

- It is no longer private
- The key must be a `ClassTag`
- Unless a lot of other code changes, the key type can't enforce being a supertype of `Null`

It all works and tests pass, and I think there is reason to believe it's OK from a speed perspective.

But what about those last changes?

Apache Spark

Lightning-Fast Cluster Computing - http://spark.apache.org/

Online Documentation

You can find the latest Spark documentation, including a programming guide, on the project webpage at http://spark.apache.org/documentation.html. This README file only contains basic setup instructions.

Building

Spark requires Scala 2.10. The project is built using Simple Build Tool (SBT), which can be obtained here. If SBT is installed we will use the system version of sbt otherwise we will attempt to download it automatically. To build Spark and its example programs, run:

./sbt/sbt assembly

Once you've built Spark, the easiest way to start using it is the shell:

./bin/spark-shell

Or, for the Python API, the Python shell (./bin/pyspark).

Spark also comes with several sample programs in the examples directory. To run one of them, use ./bin/run-example <class> <params>. For example:

./bin/run-example org.apache.spark.examples.SparkLR local[2]

will run the Logistic Regression example locally on 2 CPUs.

Each of the example programs prints usage help if no params are given.

All of the Spark samples take a <master> parameter that is the cluster URL to connect to. This can be a mesos:// or spark:// URL, or "local" to run locally with one thread, or "local[N]" to run locally with N threads.

Running tests

Testing first requires Building Spark. Once Spark is built, tests can be run using:

./sbt/sbt test

A Note About Hadoop Versions

Spark uses the Hadoop core library to talk to HDFS and other Hadoop-supported storage systems. Because the protocols have changed in different versions of Hadoop, you must build Spark against the same version that your cluster runs. You can change the version by setting the SPARK_HADOOP_VERSION environment when building Spark.

For Apache Hadoop versions 1.x, Cloudera CDH MRv1, and other Hadoop versions without YARN, use:

# Apache Hadoop 1.2.1
$ SPARK_HADOOP_VERSION=1.2.1 sbt/sbt assembly

# Cloudera CDH 4.2.0 with MapReduce v1
$ SPARK_HADOOP_VERSION=2.0.0-mr1-cdh4.2.0 sbt/sbt assembly

For Apache Hadoop 2.2.X, 2.1.X, 2.0.X, 0.23.x, Cloudera CDH MRv2, and other Hadoop versions with YARN, also set SPARK_YARN=true:

# Apache Hadoop 2.0.5-alpha
$ SPARK_HADOOP_VERSION=2.0.5-alpha SPARK_YARN=true sbt/sbt assembly

# Cloudera CDH 4.2.0 with MapReduce v2
$ SPARK_HADOOP_VERSION=2.0.0-cdh4.2.0 SPARK_YARN=true sbt/sbt assembly

# Apache Hadoop 2.2.X and newer
$ SPARK_HADOOP_VERSION=2.2.0 SPARK_YARN=true sbt/sbt assembly

When developing a Spark application, specify the Hadoop version by adding the "hadoop-client" artifact to your project's dependencies. For example, if you're using Hadoop 1.2.1 and build your application using SBT, add this entry to libraryDependencies:

"org.apache.hadoop" % "hadoop-client" % "1.2.1"

If your project is built with Maven, add this to your POM file's <dependencies> section:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.apache.hadoop</groupId>
  <artifactId>hadoop-client</artifactId>
  <version>1.2.1</version>
</dependency>
