Main entry point for Spark functionality. A SparkContext represents the connection to a Spark cluster, and can be used to create RDDs, accumulators and broadcast variables on that cluster.

Often, a unit of execution in an application consists of multiple Spark actions or jobs. Application programmers can use this method to group all those jobs together and give a group tag. The application can use org.apache.spark.sql.SparkSession.interruptTagto cancel all running executions with this tag. For example:// In the main thread: sc.addJobTag("myjobs") sc.parallelize(1 to 10000, 2).map { i => Thread.sleep(10); i }.count() // In a separate thread: spark.cancelJobsWithTag("myjobs") There may be multiple tags present at the same time, so different parts of application may use different tags to perform cancellation at different levels of granularity. - tag

Default min number of partitions for Hadoop RDDs when not given by user Notice that we use math.min so the "defaultMinPartitions" cannot be higher than 2. For large files, the Hadoop InputFormat library always creates more partitions even though defaultMinPartitions is 2. For small files, it can be good to process small files quickly.

Version of sequenceFile() for types implicitly convertible to Writables through a WritableConverter. For example, to access a SequenceFile where the keys are Text and the values are IntWritable, you could simply write sparkContext.sequenceFile[String, Int](path, ...) WritableConverters are provided in a somewhat strange way (by an implicit function) to support both subclasses of Writable and types for which we define a converter (e.g. Int to IntWritable). The most natural thing would've been to have implicit objects for the converters, but then we couldn't have an object for every subclass of Writable (you can't have a parameterized singleton object). We use functions instead to create a new converter for the appropriate type. In addition, we pass the converter a ClassTag of its type to allow it to figure out the Writable class to use in the subclass case. - path

Often, a unit of execution in an application consists of multiple Spark actions or jobs. Application programmers can use this method to group all those jobs together and give a group description. Once set, the Spark web UI will associate such jobs with this group. The application can also use org.apache.spark.SparkContext.cancelJobGroupto cancel all running jobs in this group. For example,// In the main thread: sc.setJobGroup("some_job_to_cancel", "some job description") sc.parallelize(1 to 10000, 2).map { i => Thread.sleep(10); i }.count() // In a separate thread: sc.cancelJobGroup("some_job_to_cancel") - interruptOnCancel
