Getting started

In this section, we will talk about setting up an implementation infrastructure or using the existing infrastructure from previous chapters. The following upgrades to your infrastructure are optional but recommended.

Starting in Chapter 3, Stock Price Predictions, we set up the Hortonworks Development Platform (HDP) Sandbox as a virtual machine. That said, three kinds of (isolated) HDP Sandbox deployments are possible. Of the three, we will only talk about two of them and those are:

Virtual machine environment (with Hypervisor) for Sandbox deployment: HDP Sandbox running in an Oracle VirtualBox virtual machine.
A cloud-based environment for Sandbox deployment: This option is attractive for users that have host machine memory limitations. The Sandbox runs in the cloud as opposed to a virtual machine that runs on your host machine.

With that opening point made, you can always run the fraud detection system code on the Spark shell. You have two options here:

Apache Spark 2.x Machine Learning Cookbook

Apache Spark 2.x Machine Learning Cookbook

Machine learning aims to extract knowledge from data, relying on fundamental concepts in computer science, statistics, probability, and optimization. This book begins with a quick overview of setting up the necessary IDEs to facilitate the execution of code examples that will be covered in various chapters. It also highlights some key issues developers face while working with machine learning algorithms on the Spark platform. We progress by uncovering the various Spark APIs and the implementation of ML algorithms with developing classification systems, recommendation engines, text analytics, clustering, and learning systems. Toward the final chapters, we'll focus on building high-end applications and explain various unsupervised methodologies and challenges to tackle when implementing with big data ML systems.
