Mastering Machine Learning with Spark 2.x

Description

Unlock the complexities of machine learning algorithms in Spark to generate useful data insights through this data analysis tutorial About This BookProcess and analyze big data in a distributed and scalable wayWrite sophisticated Spark pipelines that incorporate elaborate extractionBuild and use regression models to predict flight delays Who This Book Is For Are you a developer with a background in machine learning and statistics who is feeling limited by the current slow and “small data” machine learning tools? Then this is the book for you! In this book, you will create scalable machine learning applications to power a modern data-driven business using Spark. We assume that you already know the machine learning concepts and algorithms and have Spark up and running (whether on a cluster or locally) and have a basic knowledge of the various libraries contained in Spark.
