Advanced Analytics using Apache Spark in Azure Databricks

In this session you will learn the fundamentals of how to apply advanced analytics using Apache spark in Azure databricks. We will focus on how to build and deploy a machine learning model, then I have a look at how you can get started with graph based processing, using graph frames in Apache spark. The combination of big data, machine learning and graph based processing, helps to fully realise the full spectrum of advanced analytics.

You will learn the fundamentals of Spark and how it is enabled on Databricks. Then we will look at how you get started with Machine Learning and Graph based processing

You will be able to begin to work with Machine Learning & Advanced Analytics in Spark.

Spark is one of the most desirable skills on the market. Integrating with big data pipelines is fundamental to the success of Machine Learning with Big Data.
