What you should know
- [Instructor] Before we get started, I want to briefly describe some assumptions about background knowledge. For this course, I assume you have some familiarity with programming languages such as Python, Java, or C. We'll work with a relational database and SQL in one chapter. If at any time you would like a refresher on relational databases, I suggest you take a closer look at the Relational Database Fundamentals course or the SQL Essential Training course. I also assume you're familiar with installing software on your Windows, Mac, or Linux computer. We'll be installing Scala, PostgreSQL, a relational database, and Spark, a distributed processing system. We'll also make extensive use of the Scala command line tool.
