DevConf.CZ 2020

Big data and machine learning have become hot topics in the last few years. But the question is: How can we use them to solve a real issue in our lives? Let us take you on a journey through the world of data science and demystify the hype behind it by showing you how to achieve a real impact with interpretable and easy to understand models.

In this presentation, we will introduce the open-source technologies we use to create machine learning solutions with a real impact. We are passionate about technologies like Spark, Delta Lake, MLlib and MLflow and we would like to share with you what we have learned and why we use them. The talk will also feature a live coding demonstration to show how to start a project with the use of these technologies. We will also cover how to use them to solve real-life issues, such as the ones we have run into while working on our projects.
