Our Verdict
This course has helped many students grasping the basics of Apache Spark through solid theoretical foundations paired with hands-on examples. Although some aspects—such as RDDs—may feel outdated due to technology advancements, the curriculum still remains relevant for providing a firm introduction. Additionally, it's hard to ignore the wealth of information provided around scaling Spark applications and utilizing SQL with DataFrames. For beginners looking to build their skills in handling big data from scratch, this course offers an affordable starting point.
What We Liked
- Comprehensive coverage of Apache Spark's core concepts and features, tackling analyzing large data sets through extensive hands-on examples.
- Detailed explanations of working with Resilient Distributed Datasets (RDDs), DataFrames, and Spark SQL to process structured and semi-structured data.
- Optimization techniques for fine-tuning and scaling up Apache Spark jobs with YARN clusters and Amazon's Elastic MapReduce service.
Potential Drawbacks
- Lacks coverage of new features in version 3.1, and some content might seem dated, especially around RDD usage.
- Minimal practical exercises on the SQL section to consolidate understanding.
- Author presentation is via text-to-speech which can sometimes feel impersonal for learners who prefer human interaction.
- A few students have reported unanswered questions and lack of real-world scenario implementations.
