elastic search and spark

How come these stupid people use java as an underlining technology of stuff? Java sucks rocks. I hate java.

Neverless, wanted to get elastic search on  a server with low memory for testing purposes. Java stupid idiots don't seem to understand that things should work well with low amounts of resources. Idiots.

Anyways,

and I set
-Xms50m
-Xmx50m

in jvm.options file. 

from http://devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.1/config-guide/elasticsearch/es-overview.html#install-prereq-java-ubuntu

to install oracle java -- yuck. 

add-apt-repository -y ppa:webupd8team/java
apt-get -y update
apt-get install -y oracle-java8-installer

It took a little bit to manage the memory for it, but I got it started. I don't think I want to use it because I don't want a hadoop cluster. yuck.

into apache spark, I hope I can avoid elastic search

had to set in /etc/hosts the loopback to the hostname, since aws doesn't include the hostname in /etc/hosts, stupid.

spark looks promising:

obviously I will use the python interface
