Apache Spark is renowned for its speed and efficiency in handling large-scale data processing. However, optimizing Spark to achieve maximum performance requires a precise understanding of its inner workings. This blog post will guide you through establishing a Spark Performance Lab with essential tools and techniques aimed at enhancing Spark performance through detailed metrics analysis.
In the ever-evolving landscape of big data, Apache Spark and Apache Parquet continue to introduce game-changing features.
TL;DR Explore a step-by-step example of troubleshooting Apache Spark job performance using flame graph visualization and profiling. Discover the seamless integration of Grafana Pyroscope with Spark for streamlined data collection and visualization.
Dive into a comprehensive load-testing exploration using Apache Spark with CPU-intensive workloads.
TLDR; Apache Spark 3.0 comes with many improvements, including new features for memory monitoring.
Topic: This post is about techniques and tools for measuring and understanding CPU-bound and memory-bound workloads in Apache Spark. You will find examples applied to studying a simple workload consisting of reading Apache Parquet files into a Spark DataFrame.
Topic: In this post you can find a few simple examples illustrating importa
Topic: This post is about performance optimizations introduced in Apache Spark 2.0, in particular whole-stage code gen
