PySpark Training in Greece

This instructor-led live training in Greece delves into the Stratio platform, with a primary focus on the Rocket and Intelligence modules integrated with PySpark. Participants will develop mastery over data ingestion, transformation, and advanced analytics, acquiring practical skills in handling loops, UDFs, and enterprise-grade data workflows.

In this live, instructor-led training in Greece, participants will master the integration of Python and Spark to analyze big data through practical, hands-on exercises.

Upon completing this training, participants will be equipped to:

• Apply Spark alongside Python for Big Data analysis.
• Engage in exercises that replicate real-world scenarios.
• Leverage diverse tools and techniques for big data analysis using PySpark.

This instructor-led live training (online or onsite) is designed for data engineers, analysts, and professionals who wish to utilize Databricks and PySpark to build scalable data pipelines and migrate current SQL workflows.

This training offers a hands-on introduction to developing scalable data processing and Machine Learning workflows utilizing PySpark. Participants will discover how Apache Spark functions within contemporary Big Data ecosystems and learn to process large datasets efficiently by applying distributed computing principles.

This intensive three-day workshop is dedicated to designing and fine-tuning high-efficiency data-processing workloads utilizing PySpark, Pandas, and Polars within Kubernetes-based environments.

Learners will gain a hands-on understanding of how Spark applications operate on Kubernetes and how application-level configuration choices impact performance, scalability, resource utilization, and overall cost. The curriculum explores critical optimization domains, including executor sizing, memory management, dynamic allocation, partitioning methodologies, shuffle mechanics, mitigating small-file issues, and optimizing Parquet processing.

The training also tackles frequent obstacles encountered when using Pandas, such as memory constraints and out-of-memory errors, while introducing Polars as a high-performance alternative for specific data-processing tasks. Through practical exercises, participants will learn to diagnose performance and memory bottlenecks, evaluate various configuration strategies, and implement optimization techniques in realistic ETL and machine learning contexts.

The primary focus of the course is on practical decision-making: equipping participants with the ability to identify performance bottlenecks, select the right tools, configure Spark efficiently, and strike a balance between performance and infrastructure resource costs.
