+ <title>Apache Spark</title>
+ <para>Apache Spark is a fast and general engine for large-scale
+ data processing. It supports developing custom analytic
+ processing applications over large data sets or streaming data.
+ Because it has the capability to cache intermediate results in
+ cluster memory and schedule DAGs of computations, Spark
+ programs can run up to 100x faster than equivalent Hadoop
+ MapReduce jobs. Spark applications are easy to develop,
+ parallel, fast, and resilient to failure, and they can operate
+ on data from in-memory collections, local files, a
+ Hadoop-compatible filesystem, or from a variety of streaming
+ sources. Spark also includes libraries for distributed machine
+ learning and graph algorithms.</para>
