Book Description
Spark juggernaut keeps on rolling and getting more and more momentum each day. The core challenge are they key capabilities in Spark (Spark SQL, Spark Streaming, Spark ML, Spark R, Graph X) etc. Having understood the key capabilities, it is important to understand how Spark can be used, in terms of being installed as a Standalone framework or as a part of existing Hadoop installation and configuring with Yarn and Mesos.
The next part of the journey after installation is using key components, APIs, Clustering, machine learning APIs, data pipelines, parallel programming. It is important to understand why each framework component is key, how widely it is being used, its stability and pertinent use cases.
Once we understand the individual components, we will take a couple of real life advanced analytics examples like:
Building a Recommendation system
Predicting customer churn
The objective of these real life examples is to give the reader confidence of using Spark for real-world problems.
What you will learn
Overview Big Data Analytics and its importance for organizations and data professionals.
Delve into Spark to see how it is different from existing processing platforms
Understand the intricacies of various file formats, and how to process them with Apache Spark.
Realize how to deploy Spark with YARN, MESOS or a Stand-alone cluster manager.
Learn the concepts of Spark SQL, SchemaRDD, Caching, Spark UDFs and working with Hive and Parquet file formats
Understand the architecture of Spark MLLib while discussing some of the off-the-shelf algorithms that come with Spark.
Introduce yourself to SparkR and walk through the details of data munging including selecting, aggregating and grouping data using R studio.
Walk through the importance of Graph computation and the graph processing systems available in the market
Check the real world example of Spark by building a recommendation engine with Spark using collaborative filtering
Use a telco data set, to predict customer churn using Regression
