On August 22, we held our monthly Bay Area Apache Spark Meetup (BASM) at Pinterest in San Francisco.

In all, we had three Apache Spark related talks: two from Pinterest’s Data Engineering team, and one from Databricks’ Machine Learning team.

For those who missed the meetup, below is the video and links to the presentation 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 Pinterest for hosting and sponsoring us.
