 ============
-The main goal of the Spark Kernel is to provide the foundation for interactive applications to connect to and use [Apache Spark][1].

+Toree provides an interface that allows clients to interact with a Spark Cluster. Clients can send libraries and snippets of code that are interpreted and ran against a preconfigured Spark context. These snippets can do a variety of things:
  1. Define and run spark jobs of all kinds
  2. Collect results from spark and push them to the client
  3. Load necessary dependencies for the running code
  4. Start and monitor a stream
  5. ...
 
-The kernel's main supported language is `Scala`, but it is also capable of processing both `Python` and `R`. It implements the latest Jupyter message protocol (5.0), so it can easily plug into the 3.x branch of Jupyter/IPython for quick, interactive data exploration.

 Try It
 ======
-A version of the Spark Kernel is deployed as part of the [Try Jupyter!][try-jupyter] site. Select `Scala 2.10.4 (Spark 1.4.1)` under the `New` dropdown. Note that this version only supports `Scala`.

 Version

+Our goal is to keep `master` up to date with the latest version of Spark. When new versions of Spark require specific code changes to Toree, we will branch out older Spark version support.
