sparkhail:A 'Sparklyr' Extension for 'Hail'
'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/>.
