Solutions · SparkView · Spark observability

Deep observability into every Spark application.

SparkView connects to your Spark History Server and turns overwhelming logs into clear insight on resource use, performance and optimisation opportunities — so you fix the costly jobs first.

The challenge

100s of pipelines. 1000s of Spark jobs. Every day.

Without deep observability it is hard to find slow jobs, link cluster cost to pipelines, or decide what to optimise.

Overwhelming logs

Spark generates vast logs that are hard to sift in time.

Siloed data

Logs scattered across nodes and servers, with no holistic view.

Lack of context

Raw logs do not explain the root cause of performance issues.

Inefficient monitoring

Traditional tools lack granular insight for Spark workloads.

For data engineers, by data engineers

Find what to fix, and why.

Identify costly jobs

Focus debugging and optimisation where the impact is greatest.

Resource monitoring

Spot over-provisioned or under-utilised applications.

Peak-time analysis

Schedule heavy jobs off-peak and right-size allocation.

Drill-down

Stages, tasks and executors analysed to pinpoint bottlenecks.

Key metrics

Beyond the basics.

Resource utilisation

RAM, CPU and overall resource usage.

Task efficiency

Total task efficiency and performance bottlenecks.

Shuffle metrics

Read/write volume, throughput and latency, with partition and caching recommendations.

Memory utilisation

Overall and stage-wise memory usage.

Executor metrics

Time, GC time and memory per executor.
