Overview

Vespa is an open-source big data processing and serving engine created by Yahoo. It is used to respond to user queries, make recommendations, and provide personalized content and advertisements in real-time.

This instructor-led, live training introduces the challenges of serving large-scale data and walks participants through the creation of an application that can compute responses to user requests, over large datasets in real-time.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

Use Vespa to quickly compute data (store, search, rank, organize) at serving time while a user waits
Implement Vespa into existing applications involving feature search, recommendations, and personalization
Integrate and deploy Vespa with existing big data systems such as Hadoop and Storm.
