Apache Spark is an exciting new technology quickly superceding Hadoop as the preferred framework for BigData crunching. I will give a quick overview of BigData challenges and shortcomings of 'classic' solutions from the Hadoop ecosystem. I will explain how Spark elegantly solves many of these challenges through its components: Core, SQL, Streaming, GraphX and MLlib. Finally, I will demonstrate all of this with a live demo.
