Google Cloud Managed Service for Apache Spark

Cloud Dataproc is a fast, easy-to-use, fully-managed cloud service for running Apache Spark and Apache Hadoop clusters in a simpler, more cost-efficient way. Operations that used to take hours or days take seconds or minutes instead, and you pay only for the resources you use (with per-second billing). Cloud Dataproc also easily integrates with other Google Cloud Platform (GCP) services, giving you a powerful and complete platform for data processing, analytics and machine learning.
