Zaharia and colleagues: resilient distributed datasets for in-memory cluster computing

What changed

Introduced immutable partitioned datasets with lineage recomputation and evaluated Spark implementation.

Scientific scope

The record is the exact nine-author NSDI 2012 paper and its reported Spark implementation. Later Spark releases, APIs, contributors and deployments remain separate; benchmark gains are limited to the tested workloads and systems.
