What is BigData

Bigdata
======
How can we explain bigdata to someone who is completely new to it?
Bigdata can be expressed using 4 v’s
*Volume:size of data
*Velocity:at what speed data is generated
*variety:for example-cctv footage,video,emails are different varieties
*veracity:Trust worthiness of data(ie,can we use it for making inferences)

so in short,BIG DATA is :
More data getting generated at high speed in many varieties and
is trust worthy

we can store a 10 mb of data in our local system,but what if the data is in ZB or PB?

we need more infrastructure ..right?more infrastructure means more money…so here comes HADOOP for our rescue.

HADOOP is an open source framework to store and process BIG DATA

What is Garbage collection in Spark and its impact and resolution

Image
Garbage Collection Spark runs on the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). Because Spark can store large amounts of data in memory, it has a major reliance on Java’s memory management and garbage collection (GC). Therefore, garbage collection  (GC) can be a major issue that can affect many Spark applications. Common symptoms of excessive GC in Spark are: Slowness of application Executor heartbeat timeout GC overhead limit exceeded error Spark’s memory-centric approach and data-intensive applications make it a more common issue than other Java applications. Thankfully, it’s easy to diagnose if your Spark application is suffering from a GC problem. The Spark UI marks executors in red if they have spent too much time doing GC. Spark executors are spending a significant amount of CPU cycles performing garbage collection. This can be determined by looking at the “Executors” tab in the Spark application UI. Spark will mark an executor in  red  if the executor has spent more than 10% of the time in gar...
