## 🎯 Overview

This workshop provides hands-on experience with Apache Spark's foundational data structure: RDDs. Through three progressive exercises, you'll learn:

1. **Log Analysis**: Filter and count ERROR entries in log files
2. **Sales Analytics**: Aggregate purchase data across multiple stores with partitioning
3. **Text Processing**: Perform distributed word counting with RDD joins and caching

Perfect for data engineering students, big data enthusiasts, or anyone looking to master Spark fundamentals.

## ✨ Features

- **Exercise 1: Error Log Analysis**
  - RDD creation from text files
  - Data filtering with lambda functions
  - Action operations (count, take)
  
- **Exercise 2: Sales Data Processing**
  - Tab-separated value (TSV) parsing
  - Dynamic repartitioning
  - Map-Reduce aggregation
  - Group-by operations
  
- **Exercise 3: Advanced Word Count**
  - Multi-file RDD processing
  - Full outer joins
  - RDD caching for performance
  - Regular expression text cleaning
  - Sorted result generation

## 🔧 Prerequisites

- Python 3.7 or higher
- Java JDK 8 or 17 (required for Spark)
- Jupyter Notebook or JupyterLab
- Basic understanding of Python and distributed computing concepts

```

#### On macOS/Linux:
```bash
# Using Homebrew (macOS)
brew install apache-spark

# Or download manually
wget https://archive.apache.org/dist/spark/spark-3.5.0/spark-3.5.0-bin-hadoop3.tgz
tar -xvf spark-3.5.0-bin-hadoop3.tgz
sudo mv spark-3.5.0-bin-hadoop3 /opt/spark
```

### 4. Configure Java

Ensure JAVA_HOME is set:

```bash
# Windows
setx JAVA_HOME "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-17"

# macOS/Linux
export JAVA_HOME=$(/usr/libexec/java_home)  # macOS
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-17-openjdk  # Linux
```

## 📚 Exercises

### Exercise 1: Error Log Analysis

**Objective**: Filter and analyze error entries in server log files.

**Key Concepts**:
- Creating RDDs from text files
- Filtering operations
- Count and collect actions

**Code Snippet**:
```python
errors_rdd = rdd.filter(lambda line: "ERROR" in line)
error_count = errors_rdd.count()
```

**Expected Output**:
```
Nombre de lignes contenant 'ERROR' : 13
```

---

### Exercise 2: Sales Data Aggregation

**Objective**: Calculate total sales per store from transaction data.

**Key Concepts**:
- RDD partitioning
- Map-Reduce pattern
- Key-value pair operations
- Aggregation with reduceByKey

**Code Snippet**:
```python
total_par_magasin = rdd.map(lambda line: line.split('\t')) \
                       .map(lambda parts: (parts[2], float(parts[4]))) \
                       .reduceByKey(lambda a, b: a + b)
```

**Sample Output**:
```
Albuquerque: 3028079.62
Anaheim: 3085295.94
Cleveland: 3121222.68
Total général: 313270384.87
```

### Exercise 3: Distributed Word Count with Joins

**Objective**: Count word frequencies across multiple documents using RDD joins.

**Key Concepts**:
- Multiple RDD processing
- Text tokenization with regex
- Full outer joins
- RDD caching
- Sorting and ranking

**Code Snippet**:
```python
rdd_joint = word_count_readme.fullOuterJoin(word_count_changes)
rdd_joint.cache()
rdd_final = rdd_joint.mapValues(combiner_counts)
```
