How to use Scala along with Spark for a Java Developer

Below are tips and tricks I have learnt about Spark with Scala

How to create dataset of custom objects
import spark.implicits._ class MyObj(val i: Int) // ... val d = spark.createDataset(Seq(new MyObj(1),new MyObj(2),new MyObj(3)))
Will give you error, so instead use kyro encoder
import spark.implicits._ class MyObj(val i: Int) implicit val myObjEncoder = org.apache.spark.sql.Encoders.kryo[MyObj]
// ...

val d = spark.createDataset(Seq(new MyObj(1),new MyObj(2),new MyObj(3)))

Health Benefits of Kefir I have seen personally!

Disclaimer: This is not any medical advice or prescription, please consult doctor for any health issues. These are authors personal observations.

Kefir drink is rich in B vitamins, enzymes which are essential for healthy individual.
Kefir drink is very beneficial for dental health as the root cause of dental decay or any other dental problems are bad bacteria. Regular intake of water Kefir fermented with lemon or ginger improves the dental health a lot and also removes the bad breath from mouth.
Candida infections are cleared. Kefir is instrumental in removing candida infections by drinking regular water Kefir. It removes candida infections in mouth, private parts.
Tendency towards Alcohol is gone. Sugar craving is reduced and improved the responsible living attitude, I mean taking care of personal health.
Brightens the skin by regular application on skin.
Anti depressant, it inhibits the feel good feeling by boosting the serotonin production.
Solves several gut issues ranging from indigestion, acidity, constipation etc.
Diabetic patients need to be careful while using water kefir, as it may contain more sugars if not reduced by doing second fermentation. In my case regular drinking of second fermented drink has brought down my sugar levels to normal range.

How to increase the growth of Kefir Grains?

If you want to increase the growth of Kefir grains you can do by adding mineral sources such as Baking Soda (only pinch of it, i.e. 1/16th of spoon) to the fermentation bottle. You can alternate it with organic Jaggery. Both are good sources of minerals; Jaggery contains molasses which is rich in minerals. Also do give just regular white sugar on few days.

While using jaggery make sure it is dissolved in the water otherwise Kefir cannot feed on it. Merchandises are selling the powdered jaggery also.

Kefir Grains need regular minerals as our water sources are mostly filtered and/or RO, so prolonged use of just RO water will deplete the Kefir health and content.

While using above mineral sources if Kefir grains and fermented liquid is turning slimy then it is clear indication that excess minerals are being fed. So you need to give them simple sugar liquid for few days until they become more crystalline. Also reduce the amounts of mineral sources. In case of jagerry you can use 50% jagerry and 50% plain sugar.
