Spark SQL is the Apache Spark module designed for interacting with structured and unstructured data. It provides metadata regarding data structure and the computations being executed, enabling various performance optimisations. Spark SQL is commonly used to:
- execute SQL queries.
- read data from an existing Hive installation.

During this instructor-led live training (available onsite or remotely), participants will learn how to analyse diverse data sets using Spark SQL.

Upon completing this training, participants will be able to:

• Install and configure Spark SQL.
• Perform data analysis using Spark SQL.
• Query data sets in various formats.
• Visualise data and query results.

Format of the Course

• Interactive lecture and discussion.
• Extensive exercises and practice.
• Hands-on implementation in a live-lab environment.
