DataHour: An Introduction to Big Data Processing using Apache Spark

About the Event

Apache Spark is an open-source and distributed processing system used for big data workloads. It utilizes in-memory caching, and optimized query execution for fast analytic queries against data of any size. It provides development APIs in multiple programming languages like Java, Scala, Python and R, and also supports code reuse across multiple workloads. 

In this DataHour, Akshay will be providing an overview of Apache Spark and its capabilities as a distributed computing system. Additionally, we will delve into internal data processing using Spark and explore techniques for performance tuning of Spark jobs.
