Summary, etc Programming techniques that work well on laptop-sized data can slow to a crawl-- or fail altogether-- when applied to massive files or distributed datasets. By mastering the powerful map and reduce paradigm, along with the Python-based tools that support it, you can write data-centric applications that scale efficiently without requiring codebase rewrites as your requirements change. "Mastering large datasets with Python" teaches you to write code that can handle datasets of any size. You'll start with laptop-sized datasets that teach you to parallelize data analysis by breaking large tasks into smaller ones that can run simultaneously. You'll then scale those same programs to industrial-sized datasets on a cluster of cloud servers. With the map and reduce paradigm firly in place, you'll explore tools like Hadoop and PySpark to efficiently process massive distributed datasets, speed up decision-making with machine learning, and simplify your data storage with AWS S3.
