Advanced Analytics with Spark
Patterns for Learning from Data at Scale
Book Description
In this practical book, four Cloudera data scientists present a set of self-contained patterns for performing large-scale data analysis with Spark. The authors bring Spark, statistical methods, and real-world data sets together to teach you how to approach analytics problems by example.
You'll start with an introduction to Spark and its ecosystem, and then dive into patterns that apply common techniques - classification, collaborative filtering, and anomaly detection among others - to fields such as genomics, security, and finance. If you have an entry-level understanding of machine learning and statistics, and you program in Java, Python, or Scala, you'll find these patterns useful for working on your own data applications.
