What is tungsten in spark?..

Answer / Varun Bisaria

Tungsten is an open-source code generation and compilation technology for Apache Spark. It aims to improve the performance of Spark's core execution engine by automatically generating efficient native code from a significant portion of the Java or Scala API. This results in faster processing times as the generated code can execute directly on the CPU without interpreting bytecode.
