DPark is a Python clone of Apache Spark, providing a MapReduce-like distributed computing framework that supports iterative computation. Jobs written with DparkContext can run locally or on a Mesos cluster without code changes.

Use cases

  • run mapreduce word count jobs in python
  • process large datasets on a mesos cluster
  • run iterative algorithms like pagerank in python
  • batch etl over text files without learning scala spark
  • debug distributed jobs via a web ui with stage graphs

When to choose

  • you want Spark-style RDD programming in pure Python
  • your cluster runs Mesos and you prefer Python over Scala/Java
  • you need lightweight MapReduce with iterative computation support

When to avoid

  • you need modern Spark features like DataFrames, SQL, or MLlib
  • you want an actively developed project - the last release was 2020
  • your infrastructure uses Kubernetes or YARN instead of Mesos
