Advanced Analytics with Spark: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Advanced Analytics with Spark" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

In this practical book, four Cloudera data scientists present a set of self-contained patterns for performing large-scale data analysis with Spark. The authors bring Spark, statistical methods, and real-world data sets together to teach you how to approach analytics problems by example. Youll start with an introduction to Spark and its ecosystem, and then dive into patterns that apply common techniques-classification, collaborative filtering, and anomaly detection among others-to fields such as genomics, security, and finance. If you have an entry-level understanding of machine learning and statistics, and you program in Java, Python, or Scala, youll find these patterns useful for working on your own data applications. Patterns include: Recommending music and the Audioscrobbler data set, Predicting forest cover with decision trees, Anomaly detection in network traffic with K-means clustering, Understanding Wikipedia with Latent Semantic Analysis, Analyzing co-occurrence networks with GraphX, Geospatial and temporal data analysis on the New York City Taxi Trips data, Estimating financial risk through Monte Carlo simulation, Analyzing genomics data and the BDG project and Analyzing neuroimaging data with PySpark and Thunder. from publishers website;Analyzing big data -- Introduction to data analysis with Scala and Spark -- Recommending music and the audioscrobbler data set -- Predicting forest cover with decision trees -- Anomaly detection in network traffic with K-means clustering -- Understanding Wikipedia with latent semantic analysis -- Analyzing co-occurrence networks with GraphX -- Geospatial and temporal data analysis on the New York City taxi trip data -- Estimating financial risk through Monte Carlo simulation -- Analyzing genomics data and the BDG project -- Analyzing neuroimaging data with PySpark and Thunder

Foreword

Ever since we started the Spark project at Berkeley, Ive been excited about not just building fast parallel systems, but helping more and more people make use of large-scale computing. This is why Im very happy to see this book, written by four experts in data science, on advanced analytics with Spark. Sandy, Uri, Sean, and Josh have been working with Spark for a while, and have put together a great collection of content with equal parts explanations and examples.

The thing I like most about this book is its focus on examples, which are all drawn from real applications on real-world data sets. Its hard to find one, let alone ten examples that cover big data and that you can run on your laptop, but the authors have managed to create such a collection and set everything up so you can run them in Spark. Moreover, the authors cover not just the core algorithms, but the intricacies of data preparation and model tuning that are needed to really get good results. You should be able to take the concepts in these examples and directly apply them to your own problems.

Big data processing is undoubtedly one of the most exciting areas in computing today, and remains an area of fast evolution and introduction of new ideas. I hope that this book helps you get started in this exciting new field.

Preface

Sandy Ryza

I dont like to think I have many regrets, but its hard to believe anything good came out of a particular lazy moment in 2011 when I was looking into how to best distribute tough discrete optimization problems over clusters of computers. My advisor explained this newfangled Spark thing he had heard of, and I basically wrote off the concept as too good to be true and promptly got back to writing my undergrad thesis in MapReduce. Since then, Spark and I have both matured a bit, but one of us has seen a meteoric rise thats nearly impossible to avoid making ignite puns about. Cut to two years later, and it has become crystal clear that Spark is something worth paying attention to.

Sparks long lineage of predecessors, running from MPI to MapReduce, makes it possible to write programs that take advantage of massive resources while abstracting away the nitty-gritty details of distributed systems. As much as data processing needs have motivated the development of these frameworks, in a way the field of big data has become so related to these frameworks that its scope is defined by what these frameworks can handle. Sparks promise is to take this a little furtherto make writing distributed programs feel like writing regular programs.

Spark will be great at giving ETL pipelines huge boosts in performance and easing some of the pain that feeds the MapReduce programmers daily chant of despair (why? whyyyyy?) to the Hadoop gods. But the exciting thing for me about it has always been what it opens up for complex analytics. With a paradigm that supports iterative algorithms and interactive exploration, Spark is finally an open source framework that allows a data scientist to be productive with large data sets.

I think the best way to teach data science is by example. To that end, my colleagues and I have put together a book of applications, trying to touch on the interactions between the most common algorithms, data sets, and design patterns in large-scale analytics. This book isnt meant to be read cover to cover. Page to a chapter that looks like something youre trying to accomplish, or that simply ignites your interest.

Whats in This Book

The first chapter will place Spark within the wider context of data science and big data analytics. After that, each chapter will comprise a self-contained analysis using Spark. The second chapter will introduce the basics of data processing in Spark and Scala through a use case in data cleansing. The next few chapters will delve into the meat and potatoes of machine learning with Spark, applying some of the most common algorithms in canonical applications. The remaining chapters are a bit more of a grab bag and apply Spark in slightly more exotic applicationsfor example, querying Wikipedia through latent semantic relationships in the text or analyzing genomics data.
