+An Apache Spark cluster is an orchestrated set of machines over which distributed/Big data calculus is processed. In the case of Scaleway Data Lab, the Apache Spark cluster is a Kubernetes cluster, with Apache Spark installed in each pod. For more details, check out the [Apache Spark documentation](https://spark.apache.org/documentation.html).

A Data Lab is a project setup that combines a Notebook and an Apache Spark Cluster for data analysis and experimentation. it comes with the required infrastructure and tools to allow data scientists, analysts, and researchers to explore data, create models, and gain insights.

A notebook for an Apache Spark cluster is an interactive, web-based tool that allows users to write and execute code, visualize data, and share results in a collaborative environment. It connects to an Apache Spark cluster to run large-scale data processing tasks directly from the notebook interface, making it easier to develop and test data workflows.

-An Apache Spark cluster is an orchestrated set of machines over which the distributed/Big data calculus is going to be processed. In the case of this project, the Apache Spark cluster is a Kubernetes cluster, upon which Apache Spark has been installed in every pod deployed. For more details, check out the [Apache Spark documentation](https://spark.apache.org/documentation.html).
+A Persistent Volume (PV) is a cluster-wide storage resource that ensures data persistence beyond the lifecycle of individual pods. Persistent volumes abstract the underlying storage details, allowing administrators to use various storage solutions.
+
+Apache SparkĀ® executors require storage space for various operations, particularly to shuffle data during wide operations such as sorting, grouping, and aggregation. Wide operations are transformations that require data from different partitions to be combined, often resulting in data movement across the cluster. During the map phase, executors write data to shuffle storage, which is then read by reducers.

## Transaction
+
An SQL transaction is a sequence of one or more SQL operations (such as queries, inserts, updates, or deletions) executed as a single unit of work. These transactions ensure data integrity and consistency, following the ACID properties: Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, and Durability, meaning all operations within a transaction either complete successfully or none of them take effect. An SQL transaction can be rolled back in case of an error.
