What I Learned From Attending #SparkAISummit 2020

One of the best virtual conferences that I attended over the summer is Spark + AI Summit 2020, which delivers a one-stop-shop for developers, data scientists, and tech executives seeking to apply the best data and AI tools to build innovative products. I learned a ton of practical knowledge: new developments in Apache Spark, Delta Lake, and MLflow; best practices to manage the ML lifecycle, tips for building reliable data pipelines at scale; latest advancements in popular frameworks; and real-world use cases for AI.
