     9  # Running Apache Spark on Nomad
    10  
    11  Apache Spark is a popular data processing engine/framework that has been
    12  architected to use third-party schedulers. The Nomad ecosystem includes a
    13  [fork of Apache Spark](https://github.com/hashicorp/nomad-spark) that natively
    14  integrates Nomad as a cluster manager and scheduler for Spark. When running on
    15  Nomad, the Spark executors that run Spark tasks for your application, and
    16  optionally the application driver itself, run as Nomad tasks in a Nomad job.
