Steve Loughran 2cf83c4783 [SPARK-7481][BUILD] Add spark-hadoop-cloud module to pull in object store access.
## What changes were proposed in this pull request?

Add a new `spark-hadoop-cloud` module and maven profile to pull in object store support from `hadoop-openstack`, `hadoop-aws` and `hadoop-azure` (Hadoop 2.7+) JARs, along with their dependencies, fixing up the dependencies so that everything works, in particular Jackson.

It restores `s3n://` access to S3, adds its `s3a://` replacement, OpenStack `swift://` and azure `wasb://`.

There's a documentation page, `cloud_integration.md`, which covers the basic details of using Spark with object stores, referring the reader to the supplier's own documentation, with specific warnings on security and the possible mismatch between a store's behavior and that of a filesystem. In particular, users are advised be very cautious when trying to use an object store as the destination of data, and to consult the documentation of the storage supplier and the connector.

(this is the successor to #12004; I can't re-open it)

## How was this patch tested?

Downstream tests exist in [https://github.com/steveloughran/spark-cloud-examples/tree/master/cloud-examples](https://github.com/steveloughran/spark-cloud-examples/tree/master/cloud-examples)

Those verify that the dependencies are sufficient to allow downstream applications to work with s3a, azure wasb and swift storage connectors, and perform basic IO & dataframe operations thereon. All seems well.

Manually clean build & verify that assembly contains the relevant aws-* hadoop-* artifacts on Hadoop 2.6; azure on a hadoop-2.7 profile.

SBT build: `build/sbt -Phadoop-cloud -Phadoop-2.7 package`
maven build `mvn install -Phadoop-cloud -Phadoop-2.7`

This PR *does not* update `dev/deps/spark-deps-hadoop-2.7` or `dev/deps/spark-deps-hadoop-2.6`, because unless the hadoop-cloud profile is enabled, no extra JARs show up in the dependency list. The dependency check in Jenkins isn't setting the property, so the new JARs aren't visible.

global Spark Overview Overview Apache Spark SPARK_VERSION_SHORT documentation homepage

Apache Spark is a fast and general-purpose cluster computing system. It provides high-level APIs in Java, Scala, Python and R, and an optimized engine that supports general execution graphs. It also supports a rich set of higher-level tools including Spark SQL for SQL and structured data processing, MLlib for machine learning, GraphX for graph processing, and Spark Streaming.

Downloading

Get Spark from the downloads page of the project website. This documentation is for Spark version {{site.SPARK_VERSION}}. Spark uses Hadoop's client libraries for HDFS and YARN. Downloads are pre-packaged for a handful of popular Hadoop versions. Users can also download a "Hadoop free" binary and run Spark with any Hadoop version by augmenting Spark's classpath. Scala and Java users can include Spark in their projects using its Maven coordinates and in the future Python users can also install Spark from PyPI.

If you'd like to build Spark from source, visit Building Spark.

Spark runs on both Windows and UNIX-like systems (e.g. Linux, Mac OS). It's easy to run locally on one machine --- all you need is to have java installed on your system PATH, or the JAVA_HOME environment variable pointing to a Java installation.

Spark runs on Java 8+, Python 2.6+/3.4+ and R 3.1+. For the Scala API, Spark {{site.SPARK_VERSION}} uses Scala {{site.SCALA_BINARY_VERSION}}. You will need to use a compatible Scala version ({{site.SCALA_BINARY_VERSION}}.x).

Note that support for Java 7 was removed as of Spark 2.2.0.

Note that support for Python 2.6 is deprecated as of Spark 2.0.0, and support for Scala 2.10 and versions of Hadoop before 2.6 are deprecated as of Spark 2.1.0, and may be removed in Spark 2.2.0.

Running the Examples and Shell

Spark comes with several sample programs. Scala, Java, Python and R examples are in the examples/src/main directory. To run one of the Java or Scala sample programs, use bin/run-example <class> [params] in the top-level Spark directory. (Behind the scenes, this invokes the more general spark-submit script for launching applications). For example,

./bin/run-example SparkPi 10

You can also run Spark interactively through a modified version of the Scala shell. This is a great way to learn the framework.

./bin/spark-shell --master local[2]

The --master option specifies the master URL for a distributed cluster, or local to run locally with one thread, or local[N] to run locally with N threads. You should start by using local for testing. For a full list of options, run Spark shell with the --help option.

Spark also provides a Python API. To run Spark interactively in a Python interpreter, use bin/pyspark:

./bin/pyspark --master local[2]

Example applications are also provided in Python. For example,

./bin/spark-submit examples/src/main/python/pi.py 10

Spark also provides an experimental R API since 1.4 (only DataFrames APIs included). To run Spark interactively in a R interpreter, use bin/sparkR:

./bin/sparkR --master local[2]

Example applications are also provided in R. For example,

./bin/spark-submit examples/src/main/r/dataframe.R

Launching on a Cluster

The Spark cluster mode overview explains the key concepts in running on a cluster. Spark can run both by itself, or over several existing cluster managers. It currently provides several options for deployment:
