What is Sparklyr?

Sparklyr connects R to Apache Spark, a distributed computing framework built for processing datasets far too large to fit in memory on a single machine. It lets you write familiar dplyr syntax that gets translated into Spark operations running across a cluster of machines. It matters specifically once a dataset grows beyond what fits comfortably in a single machine's memory.
