Hey ChennaiPy, I briefly mentioned about this in today's meetup. Databricks , one of the vendors for Apache Spark is providing a community edition of a Spark cluster. Think of this as your ipython notebook on cloud for running spark with nice customisations and absolutely free of cost.
It comes with a decent spec of 6gb and can be really useful for people who want to try out spark. Join the waiting list[1] if you are interested [1] http://go.databricks.com/databricks-community-edition-beta-waitlist Cheers, Sangeeth
