Apache Spark in the Cloud Training Course

This instructor-led, live training in Brazil (online or onsite) targets intermediate-level data scientists and engineers who wish to utilize Google Colab and Apache Spark for big data processing and analytics.

By the conclusion 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) is aimed at 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 training offers a hands-on introduction to creating scalable data processing and Machine Learning workflows using PySpark. Participants will gain insight into how Apache Spark functions within contemporary Big Data ecosystems and how to efficiently manage large datasets by leveraging distributed computing principles.

This intensive three-day workshop is dedicated to constructing and refining high-efficiency data processing workflows within Kubernetes environments, utilizing PySpark, Pandas, and Polars.

Attendees will gain a practical grasp of Spark application execution mechanics on Kubernetes, focusing on how specific configuration choices impact performance, scalability, resource usage, and operational costs. Key optimization topics include executor sizing, memory management, dynamic allocation, partitioning methods, shuffle operations, mitigating the small-file issue, and optimizing Parquet processing.

The curriculum also tackles typical obstacles encountered with Pandas, such as memory constraints and out-of-memory exceptions, while introducing Polars as a high-speed alternative for specific data tasks. Through practical exercises, learners will learn to diagnose performance and memory bottlenecks, evaluate various configuration approaches, and implement optimization techniques in realistic ETL and machine learning contexts.

Throughout the course, the primary focus remains on practical decision-making: mastering the identification of bottlenecks, selecting the right tools, configuring Spark for maximum efficiency, and balancing performance against infrastructure resource consumption and cost.
