Very good course for a great start in Spark. Require some initial knowledge and coding experience in Scala.

Great subject, well explained with solid weekly assignments make this course a stellar learning experience.

Thank you for the great introduction in to the Spark, What it is and What are the most commonly used APIs.

Great Introduction to spark. Programming assignments helped me to improve my skills. Thank you very much.

Very nice explanation, trainer has good knowledge, course materials are good, video quality is too good.

Very nice in depth learnings. The teacher is very good and keeps the lessons short but still meaningful.

Thanks to this course I think that I have finally understood partitioning and everything about Datasets.

Excellent cours! par contre je n'arrive pas à obtenir mon certificat. Est cela toujours possible? Merci

Excellent course!

Well-developed lectures and good-structured modules

With hands-on programming examples

It was well worth the wait! The instructor was good. Assignments were challenging as well as hands on!

It is an excellent course with good clear explanation of theoretical concepts and practical examples.

Very good in depth explanation of spark. Recommended for those who want to further understand spark.

A very natural application of functional programming to real world distributed computation problems.

Brilliant intro to Spark. I really like the enthusiasm with which Heather explains the key concepts.

Course with excellent content, methodology and teacher. It was an extraordinary learning experience

Quite advanced; links seamlessly with the previous courses in the specialization. Very rewarding.

An optimum level of detail in content, coupled with reasonably involved programming assignments

The amount of information delivered and the way it was explained is simply amazing. Thank you!

Wish we could have an in-depth spark class that cover spark streaming and structure streaming.

Really Awesome course. The instructor is great. Looking forward to more courses from Heather.

Awesome! Perhaps couple of tests would be handy, just a few to have something to start with.

Good course. Can recommend it for everyone who wants to get into the field of data-science.

Well explained and demoed . Good introduction to spark, the most useful big data framework!

The best course. Good lectures with best examples. Thanks a lot for this wonderful course.

Nice topics regarding using partitions for Spark and encoders!! Really interesting course
