These slides are an introduction to Spark and distributed computation.
They are part of a course in big data infrastructure (spark, docker, kubernetes).
Right before this lesson, the course teaches some basic Scala and functional programming.

The slides and demos should not take longer than 3.5 hours, including questions.
