Nick Pentreath has a background in financial markets, machine learning, and software development. He has worked at Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.; as a research scientist at the online ad targeting start-up Cognitive Match Limited, London; and led the Data Science and Analytics team at Mxit, Africa's largest social network.
He is a cofounder of Graphflow, a big data and machine learning company focused on user-centric recommendations and customer intelligence. He is passionate about combining commercial focus with machine learning and cutting-edge technology to build intelligent systems that learn from data to add value to the bottom line.
Nick is a member of the Apache Spark Project Management Committee.
Writing this book has been quite a rollercoaster ride over the past year, with many ups and downs, late nights, and working weekends. It has also been extremely rewarding to combine my passion for machine learning with my love of the Apache Spark project, and I hope to bring some of this out in this book.
I would like to thank the Packt Publishing team for all their assistance throughout the writing and editing process: Rebecca, Susmita, Sudhir, Amey, Neil, Vivek, Pankaj, and everyone who worked on the book.
Thanks also go to Debora Donato at StumbleUpon for assistance with data- and legal-related queries.
Writing a book like this can be a somewhat lonely process, so it is incredibly helpful to get the feedback of reviewers to understand whether one is headed in the right direction (and what course adjustments need to be made). I'm deeply grateful to Andrea Mostosi, Hao Ren, and Krishna Sankar for taking the time to provide such detailed and critical feedback.
I could not have gotten through this project without the unwavering support of all my family and friends, especially my wonderful wife, Tammy, who will be glad to have me back in the evenings and on weekends once again. Thank you all!
Finally, thanks to all of you reading this; I hope you find it useful!

An innovation lover since he was a child, he started a professional job in 2003 and worked on several projects, playing almost every role in the computer science environment. He is currently the CTO at The Fool, a company that tries to make sense of web and social data. During his free time, he likes traveling, running, cooking, biking, and coding.
I would like to thank my geek friends: Simone M, Daniele V, Luca T, Luigi P, Michele N, Luca O, Luca B, Diego C, and Fabio B. They are the smartest people I know, and comparing myself with them has always pushed me to be better.
Hao Ren is a software developer who is passionate about Scala, distributed systems, machine learning, and Apache Spark. He was an exchange student at EPFL when he learned about Scala in 2012.
