Workshop
2 p.m - 3 p.m Getting started with PySpark
PySpark is the Python binding for
Spark (http://spark.apache.org/)
. It is the same spark which claims to run 100X faster than Hadoop for in-memory computations. I will focus on what Spark is all about and the different ways it can be used with Python - scripts/shell/IPython.
