Abstract: This study was conducted based on an assumption that Spark ML package has much better performance and accuracy than Spark MLlib package in dealing with big data. The used dataset in the comparison is for bank customers transactions. The Decision tree algorithm was used with both packages to generate a model for predicting the churn proba-bility for bank customers depending on their transactions data. Detailed comparison results were recorded and conducted that the ML package and its new DataFrame-based APIs have better-evaluating performance and predicting accuracy.
