Spark Scala Real-World Coding Frameworks and Testing (Udemy.com)

The absence of clear and detailed explanations made me feel lost many times during the course. The course seemed to assume a certain level of prior knowledge that I simply didn't possess.

This course is about scala and author is using as build tool maven not sbt. Materials is not structed and organized

Lots of practical information and advice. Definitely worth it to ramp up your knowledge with Scala and Spark.

Good self learning videos, troubleshooting is required to make things work specially to figure out pom.xml entries for the compatible version of spark and scala.

This course covers the basic of my daily job as a Data Engineer, from code to basic deployment on cluster. In addition, it provides Maven debugging tips and tricks - this has been particularly useful for me, as Maven import errors can be very tedious and time consuming to debug. It doesn't deep dive in the many technologies used (IntelliJ, Scala, Maven, Spark API, Postgres, Scalatest, GCP, Docker), but it provides all the basic info needed to set up and demo the complete lifecycle of a simple Scala Spark project. Don't get me wrong, this course is indeed packed with info. It took me way longer than the 3.5 hours video to review and try hands on the course contents. An excellent refresher before being back to work after longer winter vacations.

I had trouble getting this hello world to work using gradle instead of maven. And with either, the scala worksheet crashed with a version mismatch. But neither issue prevented me from continuing.

The material is exactly what I need to write a clean spark job. However, the pace of the course is a bit too fast, it's hard to keep up especially if we want to code along.

The course is very good, it exceeded my expectations. The only drawback is the lack of English subtitles, at times I could not understand the audio of the recording.

Very Informative but too fast, need little bit slow, need to see the important steps but this is what I am looking for it.Awesome :)

Really nice! Very helpful for beginners who are getting started with Spark development. This course goes beyond the DataFrame / RDD and teaches you how to organize code and create a framework. Well Done!
