spark aggregate by key example

Example: spark aggregatebykey

val resReduce = pairs.reduceByKey(_ + _) //the same operation for everything
resReduce.collect
res3: Array[(String, Int)] = Array((b,7), (a,9))

//0 is initial value, _+_ inside partition, _+_ between partitions
val resAgg = pairs.aggregateByKey(0)(_+_,_+_)
resAgg.collect
res4: Array[(String, Int)] = Array((b,7), (a,9))
