    "This notebook will show how to cluster handwritten digits through the SageMaker PySpark library. \n",
    "\n",
    "We will manipulate data through Spark using a SparkSession, and then use the SageMaker Spark library to interact with SageMaker for training and inference. \n",
    "We will create a pipeline consisting of a first step to reduce the dimensionality using Spark MLLib PCA algorithm, followed by the final K-Means clustering step on SageMaker. \n",
    "\n",
    "You can visit SageMaker Spark's GitHub repository at https://github.com/aws/sagemaker-spark to learn more about SageMaker Spark.\n",

    "\n",
    "## Why use Spark MLLib algorithms? \n",
    "\n",
    "The use of Spark MLLib PCA in this notebook is meant to showcase how you can use different pre-processting steps, ranging from data transformers to algorithms, with tools such as Spark MLLib that are well suited for data pre-processing. You can then use SageMaker algorithms and features through the SageMaker-Spark SDK. Here in our case, PCA is in charge of reducing the feature vector as a pre-processing step, and K-Means responsible for clustering the data. "
