Abstract
The author outlines how big data software can be utilized to speed up health analytics software when faced with big data problems. Specific data analytics from the Observational Health Data Sciences and Informatics (OHDSI) Analytics tool's will be rewritten to demonstrate Apache Spark's ability to more quickly process data with Resilient Distributed Dataset (RDD) in comparison to the use of traditional relational databases such as PostgreSQL.
