A 'sparklyr' extension package providing an integration with Google 'BigQuery'.
  It supports direct import/export where records are directly streamed from/to 'BigQuery'.
  In addition, data may be imported/exported via intermediate data extracts on Google 'Cloud Storage'.

'Hail' is an open-source, general-purpose, 'python' based data analysis
    tool with additional data types and methods for working with genomic data, see
    <https://hail.is/>. 'Hail' is built to scale and has first-class support for 
    multi-dimensional structured data, like the genomic data in a genome-wide 
    association study (GWAS). 'Hail' is exposed as a 'python' library, using primitives
    for distributed queries and linear algebra implemented in 'scala', 'spark', and 
    increasingly 'C++'. The 'sparkhail' is an R extension using 'sparklyr' package. 
    The idea is to help R users to use 'hail' functionalities with the well-know
    'tidyverse' syntax, see <https://www.tidyverse.org/>.

Include interactive sparkline charts
    <http://omnipotent.net/jquery.sparkline> in 
    all R contexts with the convenience of 'htmlwidgets'.

R interface to Apache Spark, a fast and general
    engine for big data processing, see <https://spark.apache.org/>. This
    package supports connecting to local and remote Apache Spark clusters,
    provides a 'dplyr' compatible back-end, and provides an interface to
    Spark's built-in machine learning algorithms.

This sparklyr extension makes 'Flint' time series
    library functionalities (<https://github.com/twosigma/flint>) easily
    accessible through R.

A 'sparklyr' extension adding the capability to work easily with nested data.

Generate syntax for use with the sparklines package for
        LaTeX.

A 'sparklyr' <https://spark.posit.co/> extension that provides an R
  interface for 'XGBoost' <https://github.com/dmlc/xgboost> on 'Apache Spark'. 
  'XGBoost' is an optimized distributed gradient boosting library.

Provides a client for running SPARQL queries directly from R.
    SPARQL (short for SPARQL Protocol and RDF Query Language) is a query
    language used to retrieve and manipulate data stored in RDF (Resource
    Description Framework) format.
