Apache Spark vs. Google Cloud Dataproc vs. JavaScript vs. Visual Basic Comparison Chart

Dataproc makes open source data and analytics processing fast, easy, and more secure in the cloud. Build custom OSS clusters on custom machines faster. Whether you need extra memory for Presto or GPUs for Apache Spark machine learning, Dataproc can help accelerate your data and analytics processing by spinning up a purpose-built cluster in 90 seconds. Easy and affordable cluster management. With autoscaling, idle cluster deletion, per-second pricing, and more, Dataproc can help reduce the total cost of ownership of OSS so you can focus your time and resources elsewhere. Security built in by default. Encryption by default helps ensure no piece of data is unprotected. With JobsAPI and Component Gateway, you can define permissions for Cloud IAM clusters, without having to set up networking or gateway nodes.

Visual Basic is an object-oriented programming language developed by Microsoft. Using Visual Basic makes it fast and easy to create type-safe .NET apps. Visual Basic focuses on supplying more of the features of the Visual Basic Runtime (microsoft.visualbasic.dll) to .NET Core and is the first version of Visual Basic focused on .NET Core. Many portions of the Visual Basic Runtime depend on WinForms and these will be added in a later version of Visual Basic. .NET is a free, open-source development platform for building many kinds of apps. With .NET, your code and project files look and feel the same no matter which type of app you're building. You have access to the same runtime, API, and language capabilities with each app. A Visual Basic program is built up from standard building blocks. A solution comprises one or more projects. A project in turn can contain one or more assemblies. Each assembly is compiled from one or more source files.
