Apache spark project in Eclipse with Maven

If you are really looking to develop some spark projects, the easiest and best option would be eclipse with Maven which gives all framework tools to do the development easier.There are some tutorial videos in youtube which explain how to install and start with it.

I just started with the 'wordcount' program, once I configured the eclipse&scala IDE in Ubuntu.

apache spark- a software which gives you great learning experience

The beauty of open source projects is that if you try to learn it , it will take you through lot of subject areas that you never heard about. Apache Spark is one of them for me. I started hearing about it when I started to follow big data&hadoop. Ok,I thought , let me install it in my ubuntu machine . I found that it is quite easy and the interesting part is that it took me through interesting subjects like ML(machine learning), Streaming,functional programming (scala) etc..
