Cloudera and Microsoft Lead Development of Open Source Project Livy for Easy Use of Spark from End-user Applications

SPARK SUMMIT, SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. , June 06, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --#Cloudera, the global provider of the fastest, easiest, and most secure data management and analytics platform built on #Apache #Hadoop and the latest open source technologies, today announced it has worked in joint collaboration with Microsoft to reduce the burden on application developers leveraging #Spark. Cloudera and #Microsoft, together with other open source contributors, have built a new open source Apache licensed REST-based Spark Service, called #Livy, which is still in early alpha development.

Livy provides an easy way for applications to interface with Spark, submit jobs and programmatically retrieve results. At its core, Livy is a REST server for submitting, running, and managing Spark jobs and contexts. Its Client API enables fine grained Spark job submission and retrieval of results synchronously or asynchronously. Clients can consume Spark like a multi-tenant service, and not have to worry about deployment, configuration or monitoring. Livy provides Spark as a multi-tenant service with session isolation, security and user-impersonation.

Livy’s key benefits include:
