What you'll learn
Frame big data analysis problems as Apache Spark scripts
Develop distributed code using the Scala programming language
Optimize Spark jobs through partitioning, caching, and other techniques
Build, deploy, and run Spark scripts on Hadoop clusters
Process continual streams of data with Spark Streaming
Transform structured data using SparkSQL, DataSets, and DataFrames
Traverse and analyze graph structures using GraphX
Analyze massive data set with Machine Learning on Spark
Requirements
Some prior programming or scripting experience is required. A crash course in Scala is included, but you need to know the fundamentals of programming in order to pick it up.
You will need a desktop PC and an Internet connection. The course is created with Windows in mind, but users comfortable with MacOS or Linux can use the same tools.
The software needed for this course is freely available, and I'll walk you through downloading and installing it.
Description
New! Completely updated and re-recorded for Spark 3, IntelliJ, Structured Streaming, and a stronger focus on the DataSet API.
"Big data" analysis is a hot and highly valuable skill - and this course will teach you the hottest technology in big data: Apache Spark. Employers including Amazon, EBay, NASA JPL, and Yahoo all use Spark to quickly extract meaning from massive data sets across a fault-tolerant Hadoop cluster. You'll learn those same techniques, using your own Windows system right at home. It's easier than you might think, and you'll be learning from an ex-engineer and senior manager from Amazon and IMDb.
Spark works best when using the Scala programming language, and this course includes a crash-course in Scala to get you up to speed quickly. For those more familiar with Python however, a Python version of this class is also available: "Taming Big Data with Apache Spark and Python - Hands On".
Learn and master the art of framing data analysis problems as Spark problems through over 20 hands-on examples, and then scale them up to run on cloud computing services in this course.
Learn the concepts of Spark's Resilient Distributed Datasets, DataFrames, and Datasets.
Get a crash course in the Scala programming language
Develop and run Spark jobs quickly using Scala, IntelliJ, and SBT
Translate complex analysis problems into iterative or multi-stage Spark scripts
Scale up to larger data sets using Amazon's Elastic MapReduce service
Understand how Hadoop YARN distributes Spark across computing clusters
Practice using other Spark technologies, like Spark SQL, DataFrames, DataSets, Spark Streaming, Machine Learning, and GraphX
By the end of this course, you'll be running code that analyzes gigabytes worth of information - in the cloud - in a matter of minutes.
We'll have some fun along the way. You'll get warmed up with some simple examples of using Spark to analyze movie ratings data and text in a book. Once you've got the basics under your belt, we'll move to some more complex and interesting tasks. We'll use a million movie ratings to find movies that are similar to each other, and you might even discover some new movies you might like in the process! We'll analyze a social graph of superheroes, and learn who the most "popular" superhero is - and develop a system to find "degrees of separation" between superheroes. Are all Marvel superheroes within a few degrees of being connected to SpiderMan? You'll find the answer.
