On September 7th, we held our monthly Bay Area Apache Spark Meetup (BASM) at HPE/Aruba Networks in Santa Clara. We had two Apache Spark related talks: one from Aruba Networks’ Data Engineering team and other from Databricks’ Machine Learning team.

For those who missed the meetup, below is the video and link to each presentation and slides. You can peruse slides and view the video at your leisure. To those who helped and attended, thank you for participating and continued community support. And thanks to HPE/Aruba Networks for hosting and sponsoring our meetup.
