This Quick Start configures a production-ready Qubole Data Service (QDS) environment that is built on a data lake foundation in the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud. You can use this Qubole environment to process and analyze your own datasets, and extend it for your specific use cases. The Quick Start also deploys an optional environment with prepopulated data, notebooks, and queries to analyze structured and semi-structured data, in order to gain key business insights into product sales performance. 

You can now view Apache Spark application history and YARN application status in the Amazon EMR console. Application history is updated throughout runtime, and the history is available for up to seven days after the application is complete. Additionally, application history is still viewable after you terminate your Amazon EMR cluster. The console now includes the list of running and completed YARN applications on your Amazon EMR cluster. For each Spark application, you can drill down into granular information and easily view logs in Amazon S3 for each Spark job, task, stage, and executor.
