Workshops: Nov 19-20, 2015
Presentation: Spark: A Coding Joyride
Duration
Abstract
You’ve heard a lot of buzz about Spark - but have you seen it in action?
In this fast-paced coding tour I’ll show you Spark's ability to rapidly process Big Data. I'll demonstrate extracting information with RDDs, querying data using DataFrames, visualizing and plotting data, and show you how to create a machine-learning pipeline with Spark-ML and MLLib. We'll also discuss the internals which make Spark 10-100 times faster than Hadoop MapReduce and Hive.
