What you'll learn

Analyze huge amounts of data with a few lines of code in Apache Spark
Values ​​"big data" with simple python code
Analyze real data not only on your computer, but (optionally) on a whole computing cluster
Use the example code of the course for your own projects
Rent countless computers in the Amazon cloud, and evaluate even larger data masses (optional)
Challenge yourself with practice exercises and playfully consolidate your knowledge
Create systematic evaluations that have the potential to optimize your business

Requirements

You need your own computer. In the course, I'll show you how to install all the tools you need on Windows, but the examples work 1: 1 on Mac and Linux
You should have already programmed something. Some programming language is enough - at the beginning of the course there is a small Python crash course where you can repeat the most important features of Python again.

New: For Spark 2.1!

Evaluations of "big data" are becoming increasingly important, experts are desperately sought. In this course you will learn the hottest technology, Apache Spark. This is already being used by countless companies, including Amazon, eBay, Groupon, TripAdvisor! Learn Apache Spark now - easily on your own computer.

In this course, you are evaluating real data. Not only does this course make a lot of fun, the examples are also very vivid and prepare you perfectly - be it because you want to evaluate some data yourself, or you want to apply for a job as a Data Scientist!

✓ Understand the Spark Basics: The Resilient Distributed Dataset
✓ Develop Spark programs in Python
✓ Challenge yourself with exercises and consolidate your knowledge
✓ Analyze huge amounts of data on your computer with a few lines of code in Apache Spark
✓ Run a real Spark cluster on the Amazon Cloud (Elastic Map Reduce) (optional)
✓ Modify the sample code from this course and analyze your own data even faster

After completing this course, data sets can evaluate and visualize independently - and have done so many times. You analyzed glacier statistics, visualized taxi - data, frequency of words in an ebook, as well as birth statistics of the USA evaluated. As a result, you are perfectly prepared for independent evaluations, and you can, for example, impress your boss with meaningful analyzes!
