Yana Kadiyska: First steps with Spark

Heard of Spark but haven’t tried it out yet? Come and get started!

We’ll deploy a standalone cluster, go through the UI, basic options, figuring out if your cluster is properly connected.

We’ll look at logs, talk about debugging, running more than one application at a time and steps to help yourself/gather relevant information to get help on the user list.
