Stream and Event Processing using Apache Spark

This course provides the Spark streaming conceptual and practical knowledge required to develop real time and event driven (or event oriented) processing applications using Apache Spark. The course covers using Spark with NoSQL systems as well as popular messaging platforms such as Apache Kafka and Amazon Kinesis.

The Spark streaming architecture is covered in depth using the DStream API as well as structured streaming in Spark. Practical hands-on exercises are provided to reinforce the usage of transformations and output operations in Spark streaming, as well as more advanced stream processing patterns such as stateful stream processing and sliding window operations using Spark.

Topics covered include:

  • Introduction to NoSQL systems
  • Using Spark with
    • HBase
    • DynamoDB
    • Apache Kafka
    • Amazon Kinesis
  • Introducing spark streaming and the DStream API
  • DStream sources, transformations and output operations
  • Stateful stream processing
  • Sliding window operations
  • Event sourcing using Spark
  • Structured streaming with Spark

Developed by Jeffrey Aven, author of SAMS Teach Yourself Apache Spark and Data and Analytics with Spark using Python, this course will provide the core knowledge and skills required to develop streaming and event processing applications using Apache Spark.

Apache Spark Training Series

This Stream and Event Processing Using Apache Spark module is the second of three modules in the Big Data Development Using Apache Spark series. It follows the Data Transformation and Analysis using Apache Spark module and precedes the Advanced Analytics Using Apache Spark module.

AudienceExpert
This course is suitable for developers and analysts who will be developing real time or event oriented applications using Spark; this could include IoT applications, real-time fraud applications and more. The course is designed for developers and analysts who have a basic level of competence with Spark programming using the RDD and DataFrame APIs.
Prerequisites
  • General programming skills
  • Basic Python programming skills
  • Basic Spark skills and knowledge (ability to program basic RDD and DataFrame applications in Spark)
  • OR knowledge equivalent to that gained by the course Data Transformation and Analysis Using Apache Spark
Objective / outcomesAttendees should, by the end of the course:

  • understand the Spark streaming framework and runtime architecture
  • comprehend the fundamentals of stream programming in Spark using both DStreams and structured streaming
  • understand stream processing patterns including stateful and sliding window operations
  • be able to use messaging (such as Kafka) and NoSQL platforms (such as HBase) as a source or target for event/stream processing applications
