Previous presentation at Goto 10 in Stockholm

Hands on Data Analytics

2 nov 2017, 18:00–20:30 | Organizer: Foo Café

The event has passed.

Hosted by the Knock Data user group, the night will cover two main topics. The first being Apache Spark, a fast and general engine for large-scale data processing. The programs can run up to 100x faster than MapReduce. This is a hands-on session without Spark or Scala experience required. Apache Spark architecture will be explained along the way and the only requirement is a laptop with Docker installed.

The second half of the eveing will focus on machine learning, in particular its potential to explore news articles. It's an End to End solution, including Web Scraping, Natural Language Processing, Visualization and Insight Extraction will be presented in the form of a Web App in R Shiny.
