The mission of Sail is to unify stream processing, batch processing, and compute-intensive (AI) workloads. Currently, Sail features a drop-in replacement for Spark SQL and the Spark DataFrame API in single-host settings.
Sail is available as a Python package on PyPI. You can install it using pip
.
pip install pysail
Alternatively, you can install Sail from source for better performance for your hardware architecture. You would need rustup and protoc in your environment for this.
env RUSTFLAGS="-C target-cpu=native" pip install pysail -v --no-binary pysail
You can follow the Getting Started guide to learn more about Sail.
The documentation of the latest Sail version can be found here.
