Apache Parquet VS Apache Spark

Apache Parquet

This go implementation, other than common advantages from go itself (small single executable, support multiple platforms, speed, etc.), has some neat features compare with Java parquet tool and Python one like:

Hi, I've been trying to write parquet files on android for the past couple of days, and have really been struggling to find a solution. My original hypothesis was to just use the java parquet implementation (https://github.com/apache/parquet-mr), but I've since realized that not all java libraries play well with Android. I've gone through essentially dependency hell trying to franken-fit the library into my project, and imported as much as i could before hitting walls such as this one (https://github.com/mockito/mockito/issues/841).

Like many of you probably do, I tend to work with Parquet files a lot. parquet-tools has been my tool of choice for inspecting parquet files, but that has been deprecated recently. So, I created a replacement for it using Rust and Apache Arrow.

Recently I had to revisit the "JVM languages universe" again. Yes, language(s), plural! Java isn't the only language that uses the JVM. I previously used Scala, which is a JVM language, to use Apache Spark for Data Engineering workloads, but this is for another post 😉.

Consume data into third party software (then let Open Search or Apache Spark or Apache Pinot) for analysis/datascience, GIS systems (so you can put reports on a map) or any ticket management system

also, this knowledge applies to learning more about data engineering, as this field of software engineering relies heavily on the event-driven approach via tools like Spark, Flink, Kafka, etc.

Apache SeaTunnel is a data integration platform that offers the three pillars of data pipelines: sources, transforms, and sinks. It offers an abstract API over three possible engines: the Zeta engine from SeaTunnel or a wrapper around Apache Spark or Apache Flink. Be careful, as each engine comes with its own set of features.

Apache Spark - https://spark.apache.org/

A JVM based framework named "Spark", when https://spark.apache.org exists?

I recently saw a pull request that was merged to the Apache/Spark repository that apparently adds initial Python bindings for PySpark on K8s. I posted a comment to the PR asking a question about how to use spark-on-k8s in a Python Jupyter notebook, and was told to ask my question here.
