A Crash Course In PySpark

Spark is one of the most in-demand Big Data processing frameworks right now.

This course will take you through the core concepts of PySpark. We will work to enable you to do most of the things you’d do in SQL or Python Pandas library, that is:

• Getting hold of data

• Handling missing data and cleaning data up

• Aggregating your data

• Filtering it

• Pivoting it

• And Writing it back

All of these things will enable you to leverage Spark on large datasets and start getting value from your data.

Let’s get started.
