Answer / Dinesh Kumar Sinha
The Spark Driver is a process that creates, manages, and maintains the Spark Application. It initializes the SparkContext, which is used to access Spark's functionalities. The Driver program runs on the driver machine (where Spark master is located), and it sends tasks to the Executors in the cluster.
