Scala is doubtless one of the most in-demand skills for data scientists and data engineers. This competitive course will teach you the essential concepts and methodologies of Scala with a lot of practical implementations.

Scala & Spark-Master Big Data with Scala and Spark

<strong>This is an amazing course for anyone who wants to get started with functional programming with libraries such as cats-effect/ZIO and understand IO Monad in depth.

Learn about functional programming and effects from this most structured and well-thought-out course on Scala IOs.</strong>
        <p>Modern applications often need to describe complex workflows involving multiple external systems. These are notoriously difficult to get right as it requires handling errors, various retry strategies, and non-determinism because of concurrent executions. In this course, you will learn how to solve this problem using both imperative and functional programming.

This course is divided into three parts.

The first part covers building a CLI tool imperatively. Here, you will learn how to test code with external dependencies, handle errors, and retry if something goes wrong. One of the goals of the section is to discover how functional programmers came up with the notion of IO. It's the commonest way to action the functional programming world.

In the next part, you will create and implement an IO class from scratch; this will solve two different problems, of which one is searching for a flight aggregator. In the final part, you will extend IO to execute tasks concurrently. Here, you will be looking to add concurrency methods to IO implementation so that you can execute some tasks in the background.

By the end of the course, you will be able to read and write code using popular Scala libraries such as cats-effect, Monix, and ZIO. This skill is in high demand.

All the resource files are added to the GitHub repository at: https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Supercharge-Scala-Future---FP-Tower</p>
        <h2>What You Will Learn</h2><p>Install SBT, Scala, and IntelliJ IDEA<br>Understand the difference between IO (cats-effect, Monix, ZIO) and Future<br>Learn to use lazy evaluation to repeat actions and execute code concurrently<br>Write property-based tests for real-world examples<br>Understand the dangers of blocking code in a concurrent environment<br>Execute a project on flight search aggregator</p>
        <h2>Audience</h2><p>This course is designed for developers interested in concurrency, functional programming, and backend developers. Scala developers more familiar with Akka, Play, and Future will also gain a lot from this course. Individuals who want to gain the skills to join one of the many companies using functional Scala and learn to think functionally will be best suited to this course.<br><br>You will need to have moderate programming experience with Scala. The author will take you through downloading and installing SBT, Scala, and an IDE.</p>
        <h2>Approach</h2><p>This course is designed with a practical and hands-on approach. In this course, you will write lots of Scala code, test it using both example-based and property-based tests, experience issues caused by blocking logic and concurrent execution, and work your way to efficient solutions in small and incremental steps. The author guides you through all the exercises and provides a complete set of solutions.</p>
        <h2>Key Features</h2><p>Learn by demystifying complex concepts using explanations that are free of confusing jargon * Gain the skills to join one of the many companies using functional Scala * Learn to think functionally with the help of all requisite resources and learn from scratch</p>

        <h2>About the Author</h2><h3>Julien Truffaut</h3><p>Fp-Tower by Julien Truffaut offers online Scala courses that help in learning the practical side of functional programming, so you can improve your skills and your career. He is a programmer who specializes in functional programming and the Scala programming language. He has been conducting functional programming seminars and online courses with remarkable success for over seven years. He focuses on demystifying complex subjects through straightforward explanations free of jargon.

He is the author of Monocle, an optics library for functional Scala developers, which allows them to quickly transform and access deeply nested data structures. This is comparable to XPath or jq, except that it applies to all immutable data structures.</p>

DP-080T00 Querying Data with Microsoft Transact-SQL

<strong>In this course, we will process massive streams of real-time data using Spark Streaming and create Spark applications using the Scala programming language (v2.12). We will also get our hands-on with some real live Twitter data, simulated streams of Apache access logs, and even data used to train machine learning models.</strong>
        <p>In this course, you will learn the basics of the Scala programming language; learn how Apache Spark operates on a cluster; set up discretized streams with Spark Streaming and transform them as data is received; analyze streaming data over sliding windows of time; maintain stateful information across streams of data; connect Spark Streaming with highly scalable sources of data, including Kafka, Flume, and Kinesis; dump streams of data in real-time to NoSQL databases such as Cassandra; run SQL queries on streamed data in real-time; train machine learning models in real-time with streaming data, and use them to make predictions that keep getting better over time; and also, package, deploy, and run self-contained Spark Streaming code to a real Hadoop cluster using Amazon Elastic MapReduce.

This course is very hands-on, filled with achievable activities and exercises to reinforce your learning. By the end of this course, you will be confidently creating Spark Streaming scripts in Scala and be prepared to tackle massive streams of data in a whole new way. You will be surprised at how easy Spark Streaming makes it!

Integrating with Cassandra</p><p style='margin: 0'>Cassandra is a popular "NoSQL" database that can be used to provide fast access to massive data sets to real-time applications. Dumping data transformed by Spark Streaming into a Cassandra database can expose that data to your larger, real-time services. We will show you how, and actually run a simple example.</p></td></tr></tbody></table><br><h4>7. Advanced Spark Streaming Examples</h4><p>In this section, we will run through some more advanced real-world examples of Spark Streaming.
