| Metric | Unit | Description |

The following tables show a list of constraints that may be required in the definition of the study, depending on the tuned parameters:
The overall resources allocated to the application should be constrained by a maximum and, sometimes, a minimum value:
the maximum value could be the sum of resources physically available in the cluster, or a lower limit to allow the concurrent execution of other applications
an optional minimum value could be useful to avoid configurations that allocate executors that are both small and scarce
The Spark optimization pack allows tuning applications running on the Apache Spark framework. Through this optimization pack, Akamas is able to explore the space of the Spark parameters in order to find the configurations that best optimize the allocated resources or the execution time.
To achieve these goals the optimization pack provides parameters that focus on the following areas:
Driver and executors' resources allocation
Parallelism
Shuffling
Spark SQL
Similarly, the bundled metrics provide visibility on the following statistics from the Spark History Server:
Execution time
Executors' resource usage
Garbage collection time
