PySpark - Closure

Card Puncher Data Processing

About

Spark automatically creates closures:

One closure is send per worker for every task.

closures are one way from the driver to the worker.

worker gets code passed via a closure.

When you perform transformations and actions that use functions, Spark will automatically push a closure containing that function to the workers so that it can run at the workers.
