Overcome challenges in building transactional guarantees on rapidly changing data by using Apache Hudi. With this practical guide, data engineers, data architects, and software architects will discover how to seamlessly build an interoperable lakehouse from disparate data sources and deliver faster insights using your query engine of choice.Authors Shiyan Xu, Prashant Wason, Bhavani Sudha Saktheeswaran, and Rebecca Bilbro provide practical examples and insights to help you unlock the full potential of data lakehouses for different levels of analytics, from batch to interactive to streaming. You'll also learn how to evaluate storage choices and leverage built-in automated table optimizations to build, maintain, and operate production data applications.This book helps you:Understand the need for transactional data lakehouses and the challenges associated with building themExplore data ecosystem support provided by Apache Hudi for popular data sources and query enginesPerform different write and read operations on Apache Hudi tables and effectively use them for various use cases, including batch and stream applicationsApply different storage techniques and considerations such as indexing and clustering to maximize your lakehouse performanceBuild end-to-end incremental data pipelines using Apache Hudi for faster ingestion and fresher analytics

From news and speeches to informal chatter on social media, natural language is one of the richest and most underutilized sources of data. Not only does it come in a constant stream, always changing and adapting in context; it also contains information that is not conveyed by traditional data sources. The key to unlocking natural language is through the creative application of text analytics. This practical book presents a data scientist’s approach to building language-aware products with applied machine learning.

You’ll learn robust, repeatable, and scalable techniques for text analysis with Python, including contextual and linguistic feature engineering, vectorization, classification, topic modeling, entity resolution, graph analysis, and visual steering. By the end of the book, you’ll be equipped with practical methods to solve any number of complex real-world problems.

Preprocess and vectorize text into high-dimensional feature representationsPerform document classification and topic modelingSteer the model selection process with visual diagnosticsExtract key phrases, named entities, and graph structures to reason about data in textBuild a dialog framework to enable chatbots and language-driven interactionUse Spark to scale processing power and neural networks to scale model complexity
