This document discusses Mist, an open source platform for exposing Apache Spark jobs through REST APIs. Mist allows users to work with predictive services through a higher level of abstraction without needing to manage low-level Spark configurations. It supports Spark SQL, MLlib and GraphX jobs written in Scala or Python. Mist handles Spark context orchestration, provides real-time low latency model serving, and supports recovery of jobs after failures. The document demonstrates how to configure Mist and develop Spark jobs to run on the platform through REST or MQTT APIs. Future plans include adding support for Apache Kafka streaming and AMQP.
