This course is for students with SQL experience and now want to take the next step in gaining familiarity with distributed computing using Spark. Students will gain an understanding of when to use Spark and how Spark as an engine uniquely combines Data and AI technologies at scale. The four modules build on one another and by the end of the course the student will understand: Spark architecture, Spark DataFrame, optimizing reading/writing data, and how to build a machine learning model. The first module will introduce Spark, including how Spark works with distributed computing and what are Spark Dataframes. Module 2 covers the core concepts of Spark such as storage vs. computing, caching, partitions and Spark UI. The third module looks at Engineering Data Pipelines covering connecting to databases, schemas and type, file formats and writing good data. The final module looks at the application of Spark with Machine Learning through the business use case, a short introduction to what machine learning is, building and applying models and a final course conclusion. By understanding when to use Spark, either scaling out when the model or data is too large to process on a single machine, or having a need to simply speed up to get faster results, students will hone their SQL skills and become a more adept Data Scientist.

Introduction to Spark
In this module, you will be able to discuss the core concepts of distributed computing and be able to recognize when and where to apply them. You'll be able to identify the basic data structure of Apache Spark™, known as a DataFrame. You will be able to use the collaborative Databricks workspace and write SQL code that executes against a cluster of machines.
Spark Core Concepts
In this module, you will be able to explain the core concepts of Spark, and increase query performance by caching your data and modifying Spark configurations. You will also be able to use the Spark UI to analyze performance and identify bottlenecks.
Engineering Data Pipelines
In this module, you will be able to identify and discuss the general demands of data applications. You'll be able to access data in a variety of formats and compare and contrast the tradeoffs between these formats. You will explore and examine semi-structured JSON data, which is common in big data environments, schemas, and parallel data writes. You will be able to create an end-to-end pipeline that reads data, transforms it, and saves the result.
Machine Learning Applications of Spark
In this module, you will be able to define the basics of machine learning and identify the difference between regression and classification problems. You will build a linear regression model and use it to make predictions using Spark SQL. You will also be able to describe how machine learning fits in with concepts you learned in this course and from the other courses in this series. And lastly, you will be able to explain how a machine learning model is trained.

This has been an amazing course. What is worth mentioning is how the content was delivered. Nice hands on. Highly recommended for anyone who is new to Spark
Great course, really well taught and delivered. Only thing I would say is you would really need knowledge of python to really understand this course 100%
Great introduction to Spark SQL and ML Flow. I love that they give extra resources if you want to learn more. It was a fun learning journey.
Extremely informative for those who are seeking to learn the fundamentals for distributed computing using Spark SQL.
