Apache Spark in the Cloud Training Course

This instructor-led, live training in Vietnam (online or onsite) is aimed at intermediate-level data scientists and engineers who wish to use Google Colab and Apache Spark for big data processing and analytics.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Set up a big data environment using Google Colab and Spark.
• Process and analyze large datasets efficiently with Apache Spark.
• Visualize big data in a collaborative environment.
• Integrate Apache Spark with cloud-based tools.

This instructor-led live training (available online or onsite) targets data engineers, data analysts, and data professionals who wish to use Databricks and PySpark to build scalable data pipelines and migrate existing SQL workflows.

This course offers a hands-on introduction to constructing scalable data processing and Machine Learning workflows using PySpark. Participants will gain insight into how Apache Spark functions within contemporary Big Data ecosystems and learn to efficiently manage large datasets by applying distributed computing principles.

This intensive three-day course is designed to help participants build and fine-tune high-efficiency data processing workloads by leveraging PySpark, Pandas, and Polars within Kubernetes-based environments.

Learners will gain a practical grasp of how Spark applications are executed on Kubernetes, exploring how specific application-level configuration choices impact overall performance, scalability, resource utilization, and operational costs. Key optimization topics covered include executor sizing, memory allocation, dynamic allocation, partitioning strategies, shuffle mechanics, the challenges of small files, and efficient handling of Parquet data.

The curriculum also tackles frequent obstacles encountered when using Pandas, such as memory constraints and out-of-memory errors, while introducing Polars as a high-performance alternative for specific data processing tasks. Through hands-on practical exercises, participants will learn to diagnose performance and memory bottlenecks, evaluate various configuration strategies, and implement optimization techniques for realistic ETL and machine learning use cases.

Throughout the course, the focus remains on practical decision-making: equipping learners with the skills to identify bottlenecks, select the right tools, configure Spark effectively, and strike a balance between high performance and efficient infrastructure resource usage and cost management.
