If I understand correctly, Spark driver is a master process. Is it the same as the Spark Master. I get confused with the Spark master and Spark driver.
This is a common misconception. Spark Master and Spark driver are two independent and isolated JVM's running on the same instance. Spark Master's responsibilities are to ensure the Spark worker's daemons are up and running and monitor the health. Als...

Often, I see "Executor heartbeat timed out" messages in the Spark driver logs. Sometimes job fails with this error. Will increasing "spark.executor.heartbeatInterval" help to mitigate the issue ?
This is a common misconception that increasing "spark.executor.heartbeatInterval" will help to mitigate or resolve the heartbeat issues. In fact, increasing the spark.executor.heartbeatInterval will increase the chance of the error and worse the situ...
