About PySpark
PySpark is an interface for Apache Spark in Python. It not only allows you to write Spark applications using Python APIs, but also provides the PySpark shell for interactively analyzing your data in a distributed environment. PySpark supports most of Spark’s features such as Spark SQL, DataFrame, Streaming, MLlib (Machine Learning) and Spark Core. Spark SQL is a Spark module for structured data processing. It provides a programming abstraction called DataFrame and can also act as distributed SQL query engine. Running on top of Spark, the streaming feature in Apache Spark enables powerful interactive and analytical applications across both streaming and historical data, while inheriting Spark’s ease of use and fault tolerance characteristics.

Runs on Spark and effortlessly supports input tables containing billions of rows. Supports a large and ever-growing list of aggregation functions, data transformation operators, and privacy definitions. Perform public and private joins, filters, or user-defined functions on your data. Compute counts, sums, quantiles, and more under multiple privacy models. Differential privacy is made easy, thanks to our simple tutorials and extensive documentation. Tumult Analytics is built on our sophisticated privacy foundation, Tumult Core, which mediates access to sensitive data and means that every program and application comes with an embedded proof of privacy. Built by composing small, easy-to-review components. Provably safe stability tracking and floating-point primitives. Uses a generic framework based on peer-reviewed research.

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.
