Are you ready to master Apache Spark by working on a real-world weblog reporting project?
If you’ve ever wanted to analyze website user activity, generate meaningful insights from weblogs, and build interactive reports with Spark SQL and Apache Zeppelin, this course is designed for you.

Weblogs are one of the richest sources of user behavior data for eCommerce, digital platforms, and modern businesses. They capture every click, page view, referral, session, and transaction. In this course, you’ll learn step by step how to transform raw weblog data into actionable business reports using Apache Spark.

This is not just another Spark theory course — you’ll get hands-on experience by building a complete end-to-end weblog reporting project, from environment setup to data exploration, SQL queries, and interactive dashboards.

By the end of this course, you will have the skills and confidence to work with weblog datasets and present insights in a way that businesses care about.

What makes this course unique?

• Project-Based Learning – You won’t just learn Spark, you’ll build a weblog analytics solution step by step.

• Hands-On with Apache Zeppelin & Databricks – Get comfortable working with Spark in real-world tools.

• Real Dataset with 41 Attributes – Learn how to explore, clean, and analyze raw weblog data.

• Report Generation – Build 12+ key reports like session reports, page views, new visitor reports, referral domains, device/browser usage, and more.

• End-to-End Workflow – From environment setup (Java, Zeppelin, Docker, Spark) to SQL queries and publishing results.
