Big Data Montreal would like to invite you to its 63rd meeting!

LOCATION: Hopper - 5795 de Gaspé #100 (near Rosemont métro)

Join us on Tuesday Sept 3rd 2019 at 6:30PM to attend a conference, as well as to network with other Big Data enthusiasts from Montreal!

All are welcome, no matter if you already have some experience with Big Data technologies or if you're simply curious to learn more.

We have 2 presentations scheduled:

• Optimizing SQL queries for AWS Redshift

• Nicolas Marchildon Team Lead at Plusgrade

"NoSQL has been heavily adopted throughout the industry, but analysts still expect SQL for expressing their queries and expect quick results.
This Talk will focus on how Redshift stores data and how SQL queries are executed. The goal is to figure out how to author SQL queries that will be optimal for Redshift execution."

• Productionizing Machine Learning with Delta Lake, Koalas, and MLflow

• Daniel Arrizza is a Customer Success Engineer at Databricks

"Databricks is an end-to-end platform for data engineering, and data science + ML. Integrate many open source tools, not only Apache Spark, but also Delta Lake, Koalas, Hyperopt, and MLflow. We'll walk through querying a data lake with Delta Lake, transforming the data with koalas (distributed pandas dataframes), do machine learning with hyperparameter tuning (Hyperopt), and log our experiment results to MLflow."

Please tell your friends and colleagues :) !
