This course offers a hands-on introduction to constructing scalable data processing and Machine Learning workflows with PySpark. Attendees will discover how Apache Spark functions within contemporary Big Data ecosystems and how to efficiently handle large datasets by applying distributed computing principles.

This instructor-led, live training in Gaia (online or onsite) is aimed at engineers who wish to set up and deploy Apache Spark system for processing very large amounts of data.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Install and configure Apache Spark.
• Quickly process and analyze very large data sets.
• Understand the difference between Apache Spark and Hadoop MapReduce and when to use which.
• Integrate Apache Spark with other machine learning tools.

The initial learning curve for Apache Spark can be steep, requiring considerable effort to achieve early results. This course is designed to help you navigate that challenging first phase. Upon completion, participants will grasp the fundamentals of Apache Spark, clearly distinguish between RDDs and DataFrames, and become proficient with the Python and Scala APIs. You will also gain a solid understanding of executors, tasks, and other core concepts. Aligning with best practices, the course places strong emphasis on cloud deployment, specifically within Databricks and AWS environments. Additionally, students will learn to differentiate between AWS EMR and AWS Glue, one of AWS's most recent Spark services.
