New iPhone coming with LTE, NFC and double the RAM

 

The new iPhone is confirmed to have LTE support, a NFC chip and 1GB of RAM, according to a reliable source at BGR. The handset, which is scheduled for production later this summer with a view for an October release, is expected to be slightly taller than the current model, with a 4-inch screen. Where consumers will find more space is in the product’s thickness, which is to be under 8mm. A new metal backing, in both black and white, is expected to come to market.
Though final production doesn’t start until the end of the summer, apparently the coming model is in third-stage Engineering Verification Test, which is the precursor to final production unit. We don’t have much more information, but having NFC on the new iPhone is a big deal for the burgeoning mobile payments market.
We’ll soon see if all these rumours pan out.

Installing pyspark with Jupyter

Installing pyspark with Jupyter Check List Python is a wonderful programming language for data analytics. Normally, I prefer to write python codes inside   Jupyter Notebook  (previous known as  IPython ), because it allows us to create and share documents that contain live code, equations, visualizations and explanatory text.  Apache Spark  is a fast and general engine for large-scale data processing.  PySpark  is the Python API for Spark. So it’s a good start point to write PySpark codes inside jupyter if you are interested in data science: IPYTHON_OPTS="notebook" pyspark --master spark://localhost:7077 --executor-memory 7g Install Jupyter If you are a pythoner, I highly recommend installing  Anaconda . Anaconda conveniently installs Python, the Jupyter Notebook, and other commonly used packages for scientific computing and data science. Go to  https://www.continuum.io/downloads , find the ins...

Spark A to Z

Spark A to Z Simplicity, Flexibility and Performance are the major advantages of using Spark . Criteria Hadoop MapReduce Apache Spark Memory  Does not leverage the memory of the hadoop cluster to maximum. Let's save data on memory with the use of RDD's. Disk usage MapReduce is disk oriented. Spark caches data in-memory and ensures low latency. Processing Only batch processing is supported Supports real-time processing through spark streaming. Installation Is bound to hadoop. Is not bound to Hadoop. ·  Spark is 100 times faster than Hadoop for big data processing as it stores the data in-memory, by placing it in Resilient Distributed Databases (RDD). ·  Spark is easier to program as it comes with an interactive mode. ·  It provides complete recovery using lineage graph whenever something goes wrong. high availability in Apache Spark ·  Implementing single node recovery with local file system ·  Using Sta...

Pre-order listing at Grabmore is a 8GB model.  The good part though about this listing is that Rs. 16499 is all inclusive which includes shipping, handling, taxes as well as customs charges. Given that Nexus 7 has a quad core Tegra processor, 1GB ram and comes loaded with Google’s latest Jelly Bean version on Android – it still looks quite attractive compared to other tablets on offer in Indian market currently. Before you hit the order button though, you have to keep couple of things in mind. This is a pre-order listing and expected delivery time is about 4 to 5 weeks. Even in the US, Nexus 7 is currently not available and expected to start shipping from mid July. The expected delivery date on Grabmore is from 13 th  August to 18 th  August. So, if you a...
