Weaviate Podcast #32.
Thank you so much for watching the Weaviate podcast! We are super excited to host Sam Bean from You.com! As well as welcome Zain Hasan and John Trengrove to the Weaviate podcast for the first time! Sam begins by describing You.com, and then we dive into the Weaviate Spark Connector that Sam played a massive role in creating. I thought this was such a masterclass in the Spark big data technology; John, Sam, and Zain are all data engineering pros and I've never learned more about a new technology from a podcast than this one. I really hope you enjoy listening to it, please let us know any questions or ideas you have. Also, please see Zain's blog post on "The Details Behind the Sphere Dataset in Weaviate" - https://weaviate.io/blog/2022/12/deta.... This provides great detail on exactly how to use the Spark connector in Weaviate! In this case for a billion-scale dataset upload!!!
