Learning Spark SQL

In the past year, Apache Spark has been increasingly adopted for development of distributed applications. Spark SQL APIs provides an optimized interface that helps developers build such applications quickly and easily. However, designing web-scale production applications using Spark SQL APIs can be a complex task. Understanding the design and implementation best practices for Spark SQL API based applications before you start your project will help you avoid these problems and ensure that your project is a success. Learning Spark SQL gives an insight into the engineering practices used to design and build real-world Spark-based applications. The hands-on examples will give you the required confidence to work on any future projects you encounter in Spark SQL.
