Course Overview
The “Data Transformation Using Spark” course from Microsoft provides a comprehensive introduction to using Apache Spark for data transformation tasks. This course focuses on teaching participants how to efficiently process and transform large datasets using Spark’s powerful distributed computing capabilities.
Participants will learn how to leverage Spark’s core components, such as Spark SQL, DataFrames, and Datasets, to perform various data transformation operations. The course emphasizes practical, hands-on exercises to ensure that learners can apply these concepts in real-world scenarios. Key topics include the use of Spark’s built-in functions for data manipulation, optimization techniques for improving performance, and best practices for handling large-scale data transformations.
By the end of the course, participants will have a solid understanding of how to use Spark to streamline and enhance data transformation processes, making them better equipped to handle complex data workflows and contribute to data-driven decision-making in their organizations.
