Spark started as a research project at the <a href="https://amplab.cs.berkeley.edu">UC Berkeley AMPLab</a>
in 2009, and was open sourced in early 2010.
Many of the ideas behind the system are presented in various
<a href="/research.html">research papers</a>.
The AMPLab continues to perform research on both improving Spark and on systems built on top, such as
<a href="http://shark.cs.berkeley.edu">Shark</a>, <a href="/graphx/">GraphX</a>, and
<a href="/streaming/">Spark Streaming</a>.

After being released, Spark grew a developer community on GitHub and entered Apache in 2013
as its permanent home.
A wide range of contributors now develop the project (over 120 developers from 25 companies).
