Who this book is for

Anyone who wishes to learn how to perform data analysis by harnessing the power of Spark will find this book extremely useful. No knowledge of Spark or Scala is assumed, although prior programming experience (especially with other JVM languages) will be useful in order to pick up the concepts quicker. Scala has been observing a steady rise in adoption over the past few years, especially in the fields of data science and analytics. Going hand in hand with Scala is Apache Spark, which is programmed in Scala and is widely used in the field of analytics. This book will help you leverage the power of both these tools to make sense of big data.
