Description

This session dives into the world of on-demand Apache Spark on Google Cloud. We explore its native integration with BigQuery, its new capabilities and the benefits of using Spark for AI and machine learning (ML) workloads. We’ll discuss why Spark is a good choice for large-scale data processing, distributed training, and distributed inferencing. We’ll learn from Trivago about how they leveraged the Spark and BigQuery together to simplify their AI and ML workflows.
