PySpark Documentation
=====================
+PySpark is an interface for Apache Spark in Python language. It not only
offers for you
+to write an application in the Python APIs but also provides PySpark shell so
you can
+interactively analyze your data in a distributed environment. PySpark supports
most
+of Spark features such as Spark SQL, DataFrmae, Streaming, MLlib
+(Machine Learning) and Spark Core.

+
+**Spark SQL and DataFrame**
+
+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.
+
+**Streaming**
+
+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.
+
+**MLlib**
+
+Built on top of Spark, MLlib is a scalable machine learning library that
provides
+a uniform set of high-level APIs that help users create and tune practical
machine
+learning pipelines.
+
+**Spark Core**
+
+Spark Core is the underlying general execution engine for the Spark platform
that all
+other functionality is built on top of. It provides an RDD (Resilient
Disributed Data)

Maybe "It not only allows you to write Spark applications using Python
APIs, but also provides the PySpark shell for interactively analyzing ..."
