Editor's Notes
- #7: Key thing to explain on this slide is that computation for 2nd iteration will not go beyond cached RDDs. So for example when F: requests second iteration it will not hit A: as long as data is in B:. We basically perform operation on A: and keep in B: RDD. Example of how Spark computes job stages. Boxes with solid outlines are RDDs. Partitions are shaded rectangles, in brownif they are already in memory. To run an action on RDD F, we build build stages at wide dependencies and pipeline narrow transformations inside each stage. In this case, stage 1’s output RDD is already in RAM, so we run stage 2 and then 3.
