The Internals of PySpark (Apache Spark 3.4.0)¶

Welcome to The Internals of PySpark online book! 🤙

I'm Jacek Laskowski, an IT freelancer specializing in Apache Spark (incl. Spark SQL and Spark Structured Streaming), Delta Lake, Databricks, and Apache Kafka (incl. Kafka Streams and ksqlDB) with brief forays into a wider data engineering space (e.g., Trino, Dask and dbt, mostly during Warsaw Data Engineering meetups).

I'm very excited to have you here and hope you will enjoy exploring the internals of PySpark as much as I have.

Expect text and code snippets from a variety of public sources. Attribution follows.

Now, let's take a deep dive into PySpark 🔥
