Scala and Spark for Big Data and Machine Learning

i have previously enrolled for python bootcamp,python for machine learning now scala and spark, jose as instructor is been amazing with simplified methodology to explain and example make things easy to grasp Great course !!!

Highly recommended This tutorial is awesome , i really recommend this to many ..i was able to make up on scala so easily by this ... thanyou udemy ... To be honest, this is one of the best courses I've ever watched on Data Science & Machine Learning with Scala.

Finally different Machine Learning algorithms are exposed so you will able to get a complete knowledge on ML&DS by boarding several projects to practice more.

It's a very good option to find out more about Scala and its application in Machine Learning so then you can go through other more advanced applications by reading the Spark documentation.

I would recommend this for anyone interested in learning Spark, Scala and using them for Machine Learning.

For the Machine Learning parts though, the output generated and Why-and-When to use the output is not very well explained.

I struggled to solve the problem for a long time to prepare enviroments Machine learning results should be better explained when going over results in the examples (particularly for the clustering section).

Wish there were more sessions explained on using the different MLlib machine learning algorithms in terms of model prediction and evaluation.

This lecture is a good start for Scala/Spark and Machine Learning, but just covers basic concept and introduction.

Good course for learning data manipulation and machine learning using Scala and power of Apache Spark.

More detail in the machine learning section would be helpful.

I'm already coming up with some fun ideas using some Machine Learning Algorithms/React/Java/SpringBoot that I plan on "booting" up after I learn some more React form Udemy.

I am halfway through the course and so far I am loving it!

It's great to learn the concepts, but you can't be production ready with the knowledge in this course so far.

I am clear so far with the concepts.

So far excellent.

So far only the basics of scala programming are introduced.

This is excellent course for Java Programmers, Very easy for me to understand and practice so far.

So far, I have got almost everything that has been covered.

very superficial content, missing a lot of details and good practices I love the material so far!

I have worked on collaborative filtering Very easy to understand and build confidence So far, it is quite good.

Pretty basic stuff so far but very well presented and explained.

The basic idea of Spark given so far looks so exciting, and I am able to clearly understand what is being taught.

Good introductory content so far.

Course did not hit on a lot of big data pipelines , at least an introduction to spark + scala.

I've learned a lot about Big Data and using Spark and the Scala programming language to create Machine Learning models.

The course is well structured and targeted to give you the base knowledge on how to use scala and spark to solve Big Data and ML problems.

This course gives a good overview of spark for Big data, basic scala script coding , spark UI in zeppelin and databricks notebooks, and machine learning.

Recommend to people who wants to get a basic understanding of spark in big data and machine learning fields.

The instructor takes its time to explain all the concept that is covered in the course, plus he provides additional resources to help us go beyond what we learning in this course This course gives a clear overview about the relation between Scala, Spark, Big Data and machine learning.

I were able to see the potential and how large is a Big data environment is .

- too little practical examples and practising material - unreasonably long time spent on environment set-up / theoretical stuff (these sections are important but not so much as to eat away a sizeable chunk from the time designated for gaining actual knowledge of Scala and Spark) As a beginner in the Big Data and Machine Learning space, I found this course quite helpful to understand and get a heads-up of what it's all about.

It's a good first step to grab the terminologies, concepts, the languages and platforms available to perform Big Data/ML operations.

I have been using Spark and Scala on big data since close to a year and this course helped a lot in clarifying a lot of my doubts.

This course is good start for learning Spark for big data, I selected this course because this is come in my area of interest.

This is a good course to start with Spark and Big data even if you don't know Scala.

Good pace, very easy to follow yet packed with valuable information.

Easy to follow, course structure is well organized.

Brief and easy to follow.

easy to follow along!

I find it easy to follow him.

brilliantly explained Explanation is clear and easy to follow.

Very easy to follow awesome!

Well prepared, easy to follow and understand Great steady pace and easy to follow so far.

Easy to follow.

Easy to follow and understand the concepts behind the topics.

Having gained an introduction to Scala and Spark from other resources, including Udemy courses, I wanted a better-structured learning material and Jose's reputation for delivering step by step explanations gave me the confidence to enroll in this course.

procede chiaramente step by step mantenendo le cose semplici Course touches the basic of Spark, ML & Notebook Very clear with a lot of extra useless stuff on adding terminals in Atom and setting up environment for spark and scala.

Advice: more info about incompatibilities with java jdk >1.8 and scala 2.3 Excellent explanation step by step, not just jumping quickly over functions and complex programs like some other courses Clear, Concise explanations explanation of Name nodes or worker nodes.

Easy to understand Very clear, step by step tutorial.

It looks great excellent Very clear and concise.

So I completely recommend this course both for ML beginners and more experienced people who want to learn how to do it with Spark.

I highly recommend this course!

Apart of that good course I have purchased other courses from Jose previously.

Enough hands on example and guidance to enhnancement of skills beyond the course I am an R programmer with zero Java experience; This course has helped me learn all necessary steps to analyze data using similar steps I utilize in R. Other courses have made assumptions that I know some Java which greatly affect my understanding of scala.

good course, but considerable overlap with other courses from Pierian.

Content is clear, speach is good As all the other courses of Jose, this is again a great one!

Jose Portilla is very descriptive and it is easy to learn.

ta bom Fantastic teacher .. very good explanation.. Jose Portilla truly knows what he's doing Excellent Course simple and clear Well presented, clear and informative teaching.

Jose Portilla has an amazing gift of making complex seem simple.

The enthusiasm of the instructor is what made it so easy to learn about apache spark and Scala.

Jose gave excellent concise introduction Apache Spark.

Would like a follow up course that dives deeper with more exercises and real world examples.

Would like more real world insights and guidelines as to when to use which modeling techniques.

I wish more material were covered , more real world examples to give us experience on different sets of data and scenario's .
