Produktbeschreibung

"Applied Data Science with Koalas on Spark"
Unlock the full potential of distributed data science with "Applied Data Science with Koalas on Spark," a comprehensive guide designed for practitioners eager to bridge the world of Python's familiar pandas API and the scalable, efficient power of Apache Spark. This meticulously structured book walks readers through the architectural foundations of Koalas, offering deep insights into its API design, seamless integration pathways with PySpark and pandas, and the translation of Pythonic workflows to a distributed compute environment. With a strong emphasis on environment management, interoperability, and DevOps best practices, it serves as a practical roadmap for anyone looking to effortlessly scale their data workflows.
Moving beyond the basics, the book covers the entire data science lifecycle, from robust data ingestion, schema management, and large-scale data cleansing to sophisticated feature engineering, exploratory data analysis, and visualization in distributed environments. Detailed chapters offer advanced techniques for scalable data wrangling, auditable pipeline construction, efficient aggregations, and cutting-edge feature engineering-including support for NLP, geospatial, and temporal data. Machine learning practitioners will find actionable strategies for integrating Koalas with Spark MLlib, orchestrating distributed model training, and deploying explainable, production-grade analytics at scale, complemented by recommendations for model lifecycle management in both batch and streaming contexts.
Recognizing the challenges of building resilient, secure, and future-ready data platforms, the book addresses performance optimization, resource management, production integration, and the latest advancements in Spark-including adaptive query execution and the evolution from Koalas to Pandas API on Spark. Security, compliance, and data governance considerations are explored in depth, ensuring data scientists and engineers are equipped to meet modern regulatory and enterprise standards. The text concludes with guidance on transitioning to new paradigms like lakehouse architectures and real-time analytics, making it an indispensable resource for future-proofing large-scale data science systems.
