PySpark, the Python API for Apache Spark, is a powerful tool for large-scale data processing and analytics. Whether you’re a data engineer, data analyst, or developer, PySpark is an essential skill for working with big data.

This course is designed to help you boost your PySpark knowledge and confidence by providing a comprehensive set of practice questions that simulate real-world scenarios. With the rise of big data technologies, PySpark has become one of the most in-demand tools in the industry. By completing this practice test, you’ll gain the experience needed to work with PySpark in real-world environments, preparing you for job opportunities, technical interviews, and hands-on projects.

What You Will Learn

This course covers a wide range of topics related to PySpark, including:

• PySpark Fundamentals: Understand the basics of PySpark and how it integrates with Apache Spark for big data processing. Get familiar with PySpark’s architecture, components, and its relation to the Hadoop ecosystem.

• Working with DataFrames: Learn how to manipulate large datasets using DataFrames, PySpark’s distributed data structure. You’ll practice creating, filtering, joining, and transforming DataFrames to prepare them for analysis.

• RDDs and Transformations: Dive into Resilient Distributed Datasets (RDDs), the core abstraction in Spark. You’ll practice transformations and actions to efficiently manage large datasets distributed across multiple nodes.

• SQL Operations with PySpark: Master SQL queries using PySpark’s Spark SQL module. Practice querying structured and semi-structured data, creating temporary views, and performing SQL-like operations on DataFrames.

• Window Functions: Practice complex data manipulations using window functions. Learn how to apply ranking, aggregating, and cumulative functions over a specified window of data.

• Handling Missing Data: Learn practical techniques for handling null and missing values in large datasets. You’ll explore methods like dropna(), fillna(), and other strategies to clean your data.

• User-Defined Functions (UDFs): Enhance your knowledge of PySpark by learning how to write and apply UDFs for custom data processing tasks.

• Working with Hive Tables: Get hands-on practice querying and managing Hive tables with PySpark, integrating SQL queries with the power of Spark.
