Kat McNeill gives an "An introduction to Apache Spark", covering: What is this super fast data processing tool (architecture)? Why was it built (improvement on MapReduce)? How to get started.
Dr Andres Baravalle's talks "Modernising data analytics with Databricks", taking the audience through On the Beach's data analytics journey with Databricks. In this session, we’ll explore how Databricks, combined with AWS and robust CI/CD practices enabled us to build scalable data pipelines and start building a modern data platform.
We cover the key features used by data professionals, and will give a glimpse into what a project with Databricks looks like - covering collaboration, data engineering and data analytics. Whether you're considering Databricks or looking to modernise your data stack, this talk will offer practical insights and lessons learned along the way.
