----------
In our first talk of 2018 Phil Messenger of Brandwatch talks us through the distributed data processing framework, Apache Spark.

He will not only show us the nuts and bolts of how to run a single node cluster as well as how to write and submit jobs to the cluster but also talk through just why this type of tool is so important to the modern data processing flow and how it can be effectively wielded to conduct many of the steps required in building data science, data analytics and machine learning pipelines.
