Purpose of the HTTP Server?


Can someone briefly explain the the purpose of the HTTP server in spark? Is it related to shipping the jars around in a cluster?

Regards, Heiko

Used for broadcast variables and to distribute files or jars to worker
nodes.  See HttpBroadcast.scala<https://github.com/apache/incubator-spark/blob/master/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/broadcast/HttpBroadcast.scala>and
SparkContext.scala<https://github.com/apache/incubator-spark/blob/master/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/SparkContext.scala>

Yes, I've seen the one used for the UI. But there is also the HttpServer and HttpFileServer. Those are the ones I was wondering about.

It's used for the Web UI.  By default, you may access
http://localhost:8080to view the cluster information as well as
individual job details.
