IBM Analytics for Apache Spark Integrations

Transform your existing infrastructure into an asset for the entire company with a platform that makes identity a business enabler. RadiantOne is a cornerstone for complex identity infrastructures. Using intelligent integration, you can improve your business outcomes, security and compliance posture, speed-to-market and more. RadiantOne allows companies to avoid custom coding, rework and ongoing maintenance in order to integrate new initiatives with existing environments. The deployment of expensive solutions is not on time or within budget, which negatively impacts ROI and causes employee frustration. Identity frameworks which cannot scale are a waste of time and resources. Employees struggle to provide new solutions for users. Rigid and static systems cannot meet changing requirements. This leads to duplication of efforts and repeated processes.

Apache Spark™ serves as a comprehensive analytics engine designed for extensive data processing tasks. It delivers exceptional performance for both batch and streaming workloads, utilizing an advanced Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) scheduler, a sophisticated query optimizer, and an efficient physical execution engine. With over 80 high-level operators available, Spark simplifies the development of parallel applications. Additionally, users can interact with it through various shells, such as Scala, Python, R, and SQL. Spark supports a robust ecosystem of libraries, including SQL and DataFrames, MLlib for machine learning, GraphX for graph processing, and Spark Streaming for real-time data processing, allowing for seamless integration of these libraries within a single application. The platform is versatile, capable of running on multiple environments like Hadoop, Apache Mesos, Kubernetes, standalone setups, or cloud services. Furthermore, it can connect to a wide array of data sources, enabling access to information stored in HDFS, Alluxio, Apache Cassandra, Apache HBase, Apache Hive, and hundreds of other systems, thus providing flexibility to meet various data processing needs. This extensive functionality makes Spark an essential tool for data engineers and analysts alike.
