Synopsis

Work with Apache Spark using Scala to deploy and set up single-node, multi-node, and high-availability clusters. This book discusses various components of Spark such as Spark Core, DataFrames, Datasets and SQL, Spark Streaming, Spark MLib, and R on Spark with the help of practical code snippets for each topic. Practical Apache Spark also covers the integration of Apache Spark with Kafka with examples. You’ll follow a learn-to-do-by-yourself approach to learning – learn the concepts, practice the code snippets in Scala, and complete the assignments given to get an overall exposure.
