دانلود کتاب Apache Spark 2 for Beginners

Key FeaturesThis book offers an easy introduction to the Spark framework published on the latest version of Apache Spark 2Perform efficient data processing, machine learning and graph processing using various Spark componentsA practical guide aimed at beginners to get them up and running with SparkBook DescriptionSpark is one of the most widely-used large-scale data processing engines and runs extremely fast. It is a framework that has tools that are equally useful for application developers as well as data scientists.This book starts with the fundamentals of Spark 2 and covers the core data processing framework and API, installation, and application development setup. Then the Spark programming model is introduced through real-world examples followed by Spark SQL programming with DataFrames. An introduction to SparkR is covered next. Later, we cover the charting and plotting features of Python in conjunction with Spark data processing. After that, we take a look at Spark's stream processing, machine learning, and graph processing libraries. The last chapter combines all the skills you learned from the preceding chapters to develop a real-world Spark application.By the end of this book, you will have all the knowledge you need to develop efficient large-scale applications using Apache Spark.What you will learnGet to know the fundamentals of Spark 2 and the Spark programming model using Scala and PythonKnow how to use Spark SQL and DataFrames using Scala and PythonGet an introduction to Spark programming using RPerform Spark data processing, charting, and plotting using PythonGet acquainted with Spark stream processing using Scala and PythonBe introduced to machine learning using Spark MLlibGet started with graph processing using the Spark GraphXBring together all that you've learned and develop a complete Spark applicationAbout the AuthorRajanarayanan Thottuvaikkatumana, Raj, is a seasoned technologist with more than 23 years of software development experience at various multinational companies.
