# tPredictCluster properties for Apache Spark Streaming

Availability-note[Deprecated](https://help.talend.com/r/en-US/Cloud/labels-on-talend-help-center/availability-deprecated)

This content is deprecated.

These properties are used to configure tPredictCluster running in the Spark Streaming Job framework.

The Spark Streaming tPredictCluster component belongs to the Machine Learning family.

This component is available in Talend Real Time Big Data Platform and Talend Data Fabric.

## Basic settings

| Schema and Edit<br>Schema | A schema is a row description. It defines the number of fields<br>(columns) to be processed and passed on to the next component. When you create a Spark<br>Job, avoid the reserved word line when naming the<br>fields.<br><br>Click Edit<br>schema to make changes to the schema. If the current schema is of the Repository type, three options are available:<br><br><ul> <li> <p> <span>View schema</span>: choose this                option to view the schema only.</p> </li> <li> <p> <span>Change to built-in property</span>:                choose this option to change the schema to <span>Built-in</span> for local changes.</p> </li> <li> <p> <span>Update repository connection</span>:                choose this option to change the schema stored in the repository and decide whether                to propagate the changes to all the Jobs upon completion. If you just want to                propagate the changes to the current Job, you can select <span>No</span> upon completion and choose this schema metadata                again in the <span>Repository Content</span>                window.</p> </li> </ul><br><br>Note that the schema of this component is read-only. Its single column LABEL is used to load the class names from the classifier model<br>for use in the classification process. |
| --- | --- |
| Model on filesystem | Select this radio box if the model to be used is stored on a file system. The button for<br>browsing does not work with the Spark Local mode; if you<br>are using the Spark Yarn or the Spark Standalone mode, ensure that you have properly configured the connection in<br>a configuration component in the same Job, such as tHDFSConfiguration.<br><br>In the HDFS<br>folder field that is displayed, enter the HDFS URI in which this model is<br>stored. |
| Model computed in the current Job | Select this radio box and then select the model training component that is used in the<br>same Job to create the model to be used. |

## Usage

| **Usage rule** | This component is used as an intermediate step. |
| --- | --- |
| Spark Connection | In the Spark<br>Configuration tab in the Run<br>view, define the connection to a given Spark cluster for the whole Job. In<br>addition, since the Job expects its dependent jar files for execution, you must<br>specify the directory in the file system to which these jar files are<br>transferred so that Spark can access these files:<br><br><ul> <li> <div> <span>Yarn mode</span> (Yarn client or Yarn cluster):<ul> <li> <p>When using Google Dataproc, specify a bucket in the                                            <span>Google Storage staging bucket</span>                                        field in the <span>Spark configuration</span>                                        tab.</p> </li> <li> <p>When using HDInsight, specify the blob to be used for Job                                        deployment in the <span>Windows Azure Storage                                            configuration</span> area in the <span>Spark                                            configuration</span> tab.</p> </li> <li>When using Altus, specify the S3 bucket or the Azure                                    Data Lake Storage for Job deployment in the <span>Spark                                        configuration</span> tab.</li> <li>When using Qubole, add a                                        <span>tS3Configuration</span> to your Job to write                                    your actual business data in the S3 system with Qubole. Without                                        <span>tS3Configuration</span>, this business data is                                    written in the Qubole HDFS system and destroyed once you shut                                    down your cluster.</li> <li> <p>When using on-premises distributions, use the configuration component                                        corresponding to the file system your cluster is using.                                        Typically, this system is HDFS and so use <a href="https://help.qlik.com/talend/r/en-US/7.3/components/hdfs/thdfsconfiguration">tHDFSConfiguration</a>.</p> </li> </ul> </div> </li> <li> <p> <span>Standalone mode</span>: use the                            configuration component corresponding to the file system your cluster is                            using, such as <a href="https://help.qlik.com/talend/r/en-US/7.3/components/hdfs/thdfsconfiguration-properties-for-apache-spark-batch">tHDFSConfiguration Apache Spark Batch</a> or <a href="https://help.qlik.com/talend/r/en-US/7.3/components/amazon-s3/ts3configuration-properties-for-apache-spark-batch">tS3Configuration Apache Spark Batch</a>.</p> <p>If you are using Databricks without any configuration component present                            in your Job, your business data is written directly in DBFS (Databricks                            Filesystem).</p> </li> </ul><br><br>This connection is effective on a per-Job basis. |
