Advanced Apache Spark Training - Sameer Farooqui (Databricks)

Sameer Farooqui delivers an in-depth training session on Spark core, RDDs, resource managers, internals, and streaming.

Live Big Data Training from Spark Summit 2015 in New York City. "Today I'll cover Spark core in depth and get you prepared to use Spark in your own prototypes. We'll start by learning about the big data ecosystem, then jump into RDDs (Resilient Distributed Datasets). Then we'll talk about integrating Spark with resource managers like YARN and Standalone mode. After a peek into some Spark Internals, we touch base upon Accumulators and Broadcast Variables. Finally, we end with Spark Streaming and a technical explanation of how the 100 TB sort competition was won in 2014." - Sameer Slides: spark-summit.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/SparkSummitEast2… Want to learn more about Spark?
