- This course guides students through the process of building machine learning solutions using Spark. You will build and tune ML models with SparkML using transformers, estimators, and pipelines. This course highlights some of the key differences between SparkML and single-node libraries such as scikit-learn. Furthermore, you will reproduce your experiments and version your models using MLflow.
- You will also integrate 3rd party libraries into Spark workloads, such as XGBoost. In addition, you will leverage Spark to scale inference of single-node models and parallelize hyperparameter tuning. This course includes hands-on labs and concludes with a collaborative capstone project. All of the notebooks are available in Python, and in Scala as well where available.

Class was very informative and Craig presented the material in an effective way.
Communications were good and team was available to answer questions at any time.
ExitCertified was a good platform to use to develop the relevant skills and we learned a lot on how to actually spin up the tools and services we were learning about.
I loved the class from ExitCertified, the Instructor Sean Mohseni explained the concepts in a very clear manner with real world example that helped me understand the AWS Services in depth.
Course material and instructor was excellent, one of the labs didnt work very well.
