PySpark helps you perform data analysis. It helps you to build more scalable analyses and data pipelines. This course starts by introducing you to PySpark's potential for performing analysis of large datasets. You'll learn how to interact with Spark from Python and connect to Spark on windows as local machine.
By the end of this course, you will not only be able to perform efficient data analytics but will have also learned to use PySpark to easily analyze large datasets at-scale in your organization.
This course will greatly appeal to data science enthusiasts, data scientists, or anyone who is familiar with Machine Learning concepts and wants to scale out his/her work to work with big data.
If you find it difficult to analyze large datasets that keep growing, then this course is the perfect guide for you!
Note: A working knowledge of Python assumed.
