Anyone looking for an Unit Testing solution that measures data quality in large datasets
About Deequ
Deequ is a library built on top of Apache Spark for defining "unit tests for data", which measure data quality in large datasets. We are happy to receive feedback and contributions. Deequ depends on Java 8. Deequ version 2.x only runs with Spark 3.1, and vice versa. If you rely on a previous Spark version, please use a Deequ 1.x version (legacy version is maintained in legacy-spark-3.0 branch). We provide legacy releases compatible with Apache Spark versions 2.2.x to 3.0.x. The Spark 2.2.x and 2.3.x releases depend on Scala 2.11 and the Spark 2.4.x, 3.0.x, and 3.1.x releases depend on Scala 2.12. Deequ's purpose is to "unit-test" data to find errors early, before the data gets fed to consuming systems or machine learning algorithms. In the following, we will walk you through a toy example to showcase the most basic usage of our library.

Muse Spark 1.1
Muse Spark 1.1 is a multimodal reasoning model from Meta Superintelligence Labs built for agentic tasks, coding, computer use, tool use, and multimodal understanding. The model improves on the original Muse Spark with stronger performance in planning, orchestration, long-context work, coding workflows, and external app interactions. Muse Spark 1.1 can manage a 1 million token context window, remember earlier actions, retrieve important information, compact context, and delegate tasks across parallel subagents. It is designed to operate across tools, MCP servers, custom skills, browsers, native apps, scripts, images, video, PDFs, and audio-based workflows. Developers can access Muse Spark 1.1 through the new Meta Model API public preview, while users can try it in Thinking mode in the Meta AI app and on meta.ai.

MLlib
Apache Spark's MLlib is a scalable machine learning library that integrates seamlessly with Spark's APIs, supporting Java, Scala, Python, and R. It offers a comprehensive suite of algorithms and utilities, including classification, regression, clustering, collaborative filtering, and tools for constructing machine learning pipelines. MLlib's high-quality algorithms leverage Spark's iterative computation capabilities, delivering performance up to 100 times faster than traditional MapReduce implementations. It is designed to operate across diverse environments, running on Hadoop, Apache Mesos, Kubernetes, standalone clusters, or in the cloud, and accessing various data sources such as HDFS, HBase, and local files. This flexibility makes MLlib a robust solution for scalable and efficient machine learning tasks within the Apache Spark ecosystem.

Spark Streaming
Spark Streaming brings Apache Spark's language-integrated API to stream processing, letting you write streaming jobs the same way you write batch jobs. It supports Java, Scala and Python. Spark Streaming recovers both lost work and operator state (e.g. sliding windows) out of the box, without any extra code on your part. By running on Spark, Spark Streaming lets you reuse the same code for batch processing, join streams against historical data, or run ad-hoc queries on stream state. Build powerful interactive applications, not just analytics. Spark Streaming is developed as part of Apache Spark. It thus gets tested and updated with each Spark release. You can run Spark Streaming on Spark's standalone cluster mode or other supported cluster resource managers. It also includes a local run mode for development. In production, Spark Streaming uses ZooKeeper and HDFS for high availability.
