Selecting the right batch processing tool in Big Data is crucial for optimal performance; hence, I conducted an analysis of leading tools based on their speed for a common workload.
The benchmark involved a word count program applied on a text file containing 16 million rows of random words, effectively processing 160 million words overall.
Tools analyzed in the project include Apache Spark, Hadoop, Beam, Polars, Pandas, and PySpark, each catering to different performance needs and use cases.
The specifications of the testing machine, featuring an AMD Ryzen 5 processor and dedicated graphics, can significantly influence the performance outcomes of each batch processing tool.
