What is PySpark?

PySpark is the Python API for Apache Spark, a powerful open-source distributed computing system designed for big data processing and analytics. Apache Spark provides a unified engine for large-scale data processing, with support for various programming languages such as Python, Java, Scala, and R.

PySpark allows developers to write Spark applications using Python programming language. It provides a high-level API that simplifies the process of building parallel applications and performing distributed data processing tasks, such as data transformations, aggregations, machine learning, and streaming analytics.
