Mixing Analytic Workloads with Greenplum and Apache Spark
Apache Spark is a popular in-memory data analytics engine because of its speed, scalability, and ease of use. It also fits well with DevOps practices and cloud-native software platforms. It’s good for data exploration, interactive analytics, and streaming use cases.
However, Spark, like other data-processing platforms, is not one size fits all. Different versions of Spark support different feature sets, and Spark’s machine-learning libraries can also vary in important ways between versions, or may lack the right algorithm.
In this webinar, you’ll learn:
- How to integrate data warehouse workloads with Spark
- Which workloads are better for Greenplum and for Spark
- How to use the Greenplum-Spark connector
