Utilizing PySpark for Machine Learning
The rate and amount of data being generated in today's world by both humans and machines are unprecedented. Being able to store, manage, and analyze large-scale data has critical impact on business intelligence, scientific discovery, social and environmental challenges.
The goal of this course is to equip students with the understanding, knowledge, and practical skills to develop big data / machine learning solutions with the state-of-the-art tools, particularly those in the Spark environment, with a focus on programming models in MLlib, GraphX, and SparkSQL.
