Program
Apache Spark curriculum: 5 modules over 5 days
Module 1 : Theme: Spark 2026 Architecture and Distributed ETL (Spark SQL, Catalyst, Tungsten, real-time use cases)
Participants explore the major evolutions of Spark 2026 to design robust ETL pipelines. They analyze the internal workings of Catalyst and Tungsten, perform practical exercises on optimizing complex queries, and deliver a first scalable ETL pipeline on a cluster. The training emphasizes professional best practices and concrete feedback.
Module 2 : Theme: Spark Streaming and Kafka Integration for Real-Time Pipelines (Structured Streaming, exactly-once, monitoring)
This professional training day is dedicated to building real-time streams with Spark Streaming and Kafka. Learners configure exactly-once pipelines, implement monitoring metrics, and process concrete business use cases. They deliver a continuous anomaly detection system with alerting.
Module 3 : Theme: Advanced Orchestration with Airflow and Spark (Dynamic DAGs, scheduling, data governance)
Professionals learn to orchestrate Spark workflows via Airflow. They create dynamic DAGs, integrate retry and governance mechanisms, and deploy complete pipelines in a certified training environment. Practical exercises on business scenarios help consolidate operational skills.
Module 4 : Theme: Spark 2026 Optimization and Tuning (Partitioning, caching, spill, performance benchmarking)
This advanced session of the training enables optimization of Spark applications in production. Participants analyze spill metrics, adjust partitioning and caching, and perform comparative benchmarks. They deliver an optimization report with quantified recommendations for their company.
Module 5 : Theme: Production Deployment and Spark 2026 Best Practices (Kubernetes, security, CI/CD, final project)
The final training day focuses on deploying Spark pipelines in production. Learners configure Kubernetes clusters, apply security rules, and set up CI/CD pipelines. They present a final project integrating ETL, Kafka, and Airflow, validating their new professional skills.
