Following this training, participants will be equipped to:

• Establish a big data framework utilizing Google Colab and Spark.
• Efficiently process and analyze extensive datasets with Apache Spark.
• Visualize big data in a collaborative setting.
• Integrate Apache Spark with cloud-based platforms.

This instructor-led live training, delivered either online or onsite, targets data engineers, analysts, and professionals looking to utilize Databricks and PySpark for constructing scalable data pipelines and migrating legacy SQL workflows.

This instructor-led live training in Latvia is developed for intermediate administrators seeking to deploy and manage Apache NiFi in production. Participants will gain the skills to configure clusters, design dataflows, and optimize performance through hands-on labs and scenario-based exercises.

This program provides a practical foundation for constructing scalable data processing and Machine Learning workflows with PySpark. It teaches participants how Apache Spark integrates into modern Big Data ecosystems and how to utilize distributed computing to process large datasets efficiently.

Over the course of three intensive days, this practical training programme centres on the development and refinement of high-efficiency data processing workflows leveraging PySpark, Pandas, and Polars within Kubernetes-based ecosystems.

Learners will cultivate a hands-on grasp of Spark application execution on Kubernetes, specifically examining how configuration decisions at the application level impact performance, scalability, resource utilization, and operational costs. Key optimisation topics include sizing executors, managing memory allocation, dynamic allocation, partitioning methodologies, shuffle dynamics, mitigating small-file issues, and enhancing Parquet processing efficiency.

Additionally, the course tackles frequent obstacles encountered in Pandas usage, such as memory constraints and out-of-memory exceptions, while introducing Polars as a high-performance alternative for specific data processing tasks. Through practical exercises, participants will learn to identify performance and memory bottlenecks, evaluate various configuration strategies, and implement optimisation techniques in realistic ETL and machine learning contexts.

The primary focus remains on practical decision-making: gaining the ability to pinpoint bottlenecks, select the most suitable tool, configure Spark for peak efficiency, and strike a balance between performance and infrastructure resource consumption and cost.

This instructor-led, live training in Latvia (online or onsite) is designed for engineers seeking to set up and deploy Apache Spark systems for processing vast amounts of data.
