[Chicago] Topic proposal

[Don Drake]

Hi Brian,

Interesting timing on your talk proposal for Spark.

I recently gave a talk at the Chicago Hadoop Users Group on Spark, ETL, and Fantasy Baseball (http://www.slideshare.net/DonDrake/spark-etl-techniques <http://www.slideshare.net/DonDrake/spark-etl-techniques>).  

I was planning on sending a note to this group to see if there is interest on pyspark as well.  I can talk about SparkSQL/DataFrames and other advanced features in pyspark at a meeting after the introductory talk if there is interest.

Thanks.

-Don

One of our top instructors and data scientists, Adam McElhinney, will be giving a talk on working with PySpark, and presenting a use case. Audience is encouraged to come prepared to take notes, ask questions, and get a high-level understanding on one of Python's many analytical libraries.
