An emerging data science tool, Scala (https://www.scala‐lang.org/), combines object‐oriented and functional paradigms in a high‐level programming language. Scala is built for complex applications and workflows. To meet such applications, static object typing keeps the code bug‐free, even during numerous parallelized computations or asynchronous programming (dependent jobs). Scala is designed for interoperability with Java/JavaScript as it runs on Java Virtual Machine. This provides access to the entire Java ecosystem. Scala interfaces with Apache Spark (as does Python and R) for scalable, accurate, and numeric operations. In short, Scala scales Java for high‐performance computing.
