Introduction to Apache Spark with Examples and Use Cases
I first heard of Spark in late 2013 when I became interested in Scala, the language in which Spark is written. Some time later, I did a fun data science project trying to predict survival on the Titanic. This turned out to be a great way to get further introduced to Spark concepts and programming. I highly recommend it for any aspiring Spark developers looking for a place to … [Read more...] about Introduction to Apache Spark with Examples and Use Cases
IoT Data & Visualization
With billions of sensors collecting trillions of data points, the Internet of Things will amass data on a scale never before seen. Only when we analyze that data can we truly release the value of the internet of things. IoT Data Analytics & Visualization taking place on February 9 11 in the Crowne Plaza, Palo Alto, is the first dedicated event to tackle and showcase the … [Read more...] about IoT Data & Visualization
Could A Robot Take Your Job?
The BBC in the UK recently published a study of over 350 professions, ranking them in order of the likelihood of a robot being able to do their job in the near future. The data, gathered by Oxford University academics Michael Osborne and Carl Frey, judged each position against 9 key parameters of artificial intelligence and machine learning in order to compile the rankings. The … [Read more...] about Could A Robot Take Your Job?
