Apache Pig is a high-level platform for creating programs that runs on Apache Hadoop. The language for this platform is called Pig Latin. Pig can execute its Hadoop jobs in MapReduce, Apache Tez, or Apache Spark.
Created at the University of Berkeley in California, Apache Spark combines a distributed computing system through computer clusters with a simple and elegant way of writing programs. Spark is considered the first open source software that makes distribution programming really accessible to data scientists. Here you can find an introduction and basic concepts.
A MapReduce job usually splits the input data-set into independent chunks which are processed by the map tasks in a completely parallel manner. The framework sorts the outputs of the maps, which are then input to the reduce tasks. Typically both the input and the output of the job are stored in a file-system.

In this talk, we’ll discuss technical designs of support of HBase as a “native” data source to Spark SQL to achieve both query and load performance and scalability: near-precise execution locality of query and loading, fine-tuned partition pruning, predicate pushdown, plan execution through coprocessor, and optimized and fully parallelized bulk loader. Point and range queries on dimensional attributes will benefit particularly well from the techniques. Preliminary test results vs. established SQL-on-HBase technologies will be provided. The speaker will also share the future plan and real-world use cases, particularly in the telecom industry.
Apache Spark Introduction and Resilient Distributed Dataset basics and deep diveSachin Aggarwal
We will give a detailed introduction to Apache Spark and why and how Spark can change the analytics world. Apache Spark's memory abstraction is RDD (Resilient Distributed DataSet). One of the key reason why Apache Spark is so different is because of the introduction of RDD. You cannot do anything in Apache Spark without knowing about RDDs. We will give a high level introduction to RDD and in the second half we will have a deep dive into RDDs.

Apache Spark is a next generation engine for large scale data processing built with Scala. This talk will first show how Spark takes advantage of Scala's function idioms to produce an expressive and intuitive API. You will learn about the design of Spark RDDs and the abstraction enables the Spark execution engine to be extended to support a wide variety of use cases(Spark SQL, Spark Streaming, MLib and GraphX). The Spark source will be be referenced to illustrate how these concepts are implemented with Scala.

In this one day workshop, we will introduce Spark at a high level context. Spark is fundamentally different than writing MapReduce jobs so no prior Hadoop experience is needed. You will learn how to interact with Spark on the command line and conduct rapid in-memory data analyses. We will then work on writing Spark applications to perform large cluster-based analyses including SQL-like aggregations, machine learning applications, and graph algorithms. The course will be conducted in Python using PySpark.
In this talk, we present two emerging, popular open source projects: Spark and Shark. Spark is an open source cluster computing system that aims to make data analytics fast — both fast to run and fast to write. It outperform Hadoop by up to 100x in many real-world applications. Spark programs are often much shorter than their MapReduce counterparts thanks to its high-level APIs and language integration in Java, Scala, and Python. Shark is an analytic query engine built on top of Spark that is compatible with Hive. It can run Hive queries much faster in existing Hive warehouses without modifications.
These systems have been adopted by many organizations large and small (e.g. Yahoo, Intel, Adobe, Alibaba, Tencent) to implement data intensive applications such as ETL, interactive SQL, and machine learning.

Extending Spark for Qbeast's SQL Data Source with Paola Pardo and Cesare Cug...Qbeast
Slides of the Barcelona Spark meetup of the 24th of October 2019. The recording is available at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eCoCcBH4hIU.
Abstract
One of the key strengths of Spark is its flexibility as it integrates with dozens of different storage systems and file formats. However, it is not the same reading from a CSV file, or a SQL database, or an exotic stratified sampled multidimensional database. And finding the right balance between modularity and flexibility is not easy!
In this presentation, we will talk about the evolution of Spark's DataSource API, and how it integrates with the SQL optimizer, highlighting how we can make much faster queries with logical and the physical plans that better integrates with the storage. From theory to practise, we will then discuss how we extended the Spark's internals, and we built a new source integration that allows the push-down of both sampling and multidimensional filtering.
About the speakers:
Paola Pardo is a Computer Engineer from Barcelona. She graduated in Computer engineer this last summer at the Technical University of Catalunya with a thesis focused on Data storage push down optimization based on Apache Spark.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

13. Advanced Analytics Features
Schema Inference for Semistructured Data
JSON
• Automatically infers schema from
a set of records, in one pass or
sample
• A tree of STRUCT types, each of
which may contain atoms, arrays,
or other STRUCTs.
• Find the most appropriate type for
a field based on all data observed
in that column. Determine array
element types in the same way.
• Merge schemata of single
records in one reduce operation.
• Same trick for Python typing

16. DataFrame
noun – [dey-tuh-freym]
16
1. A distributed collection of rows organized into
named columns.
2. An abstraction for selecting, filtering,
aggregating and plotting structured data (cf. R,
Pandas).
17. Write Less Code: Compute an Average
private IntWritable one =
new IntWritable(1)
private IntWritable output =
new IntWritable()
proctected void map(
LongWritable key,
Text value,
Context context) {
String[] fields = value.split("t")
output.set(Integer.parseInt(fields[1]))
context.write(one, output)
}
IntWritable one = new IntWritable(1)
DoubleWritable average = new DoubleWritable()
protected void reduce(
IntWritable key,
Iterable<IntWritable> values,
Context context) {
int sum = 0
int count = 0
for(IntWritable value : values) {
sum += value.get()
count++
}
average.set(sum / (double) count)
context.Write(key, average)
}
data = sc.textFile(...).split("t")
data.map(lambda x: (x[0], [x.[1], 1]))
.reduceByKey(lambda x, y: [x[0] + y[0], x[1] + y[1]])
.map(lambda x: [x[0], x[1][0] / x[1][1]])
.collect()
18. Write Less Code: Compute an Average
18
Using RDDs
data = sc.textFile(...).split("t")
data.map(lambda x: (x[0], [int(x[1]), 1]))
.reduceByKey(lambda x, y: [x[0] + y[0], x[1] + y[1]])
.map(lambda x: [x[0], x[1][0] / x[1][1]])
.collect()
Using DataFrames
sqlCtx.table("people")
.groupBy("name")
.agg("name", avg("age"))
.collect()
Using SQL
SELECT name, avg(age)
FROM people
GROUP BY name
Using Pig
P = load '/people' as (name, name);
G = group P by name;
R = foreach G generate … AVG(G.age);
19. Seamlessly Integrated: RDDs
Internally, DataFrame execution is done with Spark
RDDs making interoperation with outside sources
and custom algorithms easy.

Editor's Notes
Some of the limitations of Spark RDD were-
It does not have any built-in optimization engine.
There is no provision to handle structured data.
traditional sql convenient for computing multiple things at the same time
Done in Scala because functional programming languages naturally support compiler functions.
