In this talk I talk about my recent experience working with Spark Data Frames and the Spark TimeSeries library. For data frames, the focus will be on usability. Specifically, a lot of the documentation does not cover common use cases like intricacies of creating data frames, adding or manipulating individual columns, and doing quick and dirty analytics. For the time series library, I dive into the kind of use cases it supports and why it’s actually super useful.
