 [[http://spark.apache.org|Spark]] is a framework for distributed computations. Natively it works in Python, Scala and Java, and can be used limitedly in Perl using pipes. [[http://spark.apache.org|Spark]] is a framework for distributed computations.

 Apart from embarrassingly parallel computations, Spark framework is suitable for //in-memory// and/or //iterative// computations, making it suitable even for machine learning and complex data processing. (The Spark framework shares some underlying implementation with [[http://http://hadoop.apache.org/|Hadoop]], but it is quite different -- Hadoop framework does not offer in-memory computations and has only limited support for iterative computations.) Apart from embarrassingly parallel computations, Spark framework is suitable for //in-memory// and/or //iterative// computations, making it suitable even for machine learning and complex data processing.
