Implement a Spark ETL pipeline that process the US stock's closing prices over the course of one year. Spark CSV reader is used to extract raw stock data from CSV files with pre-defined schema, and several transformation is applied to the data (such as removing the null row entires, extract only certain column and perform aggregation based on month and take the average on pricing, and to perform count on the number of occurrence closing price is not equaled to adjusted closing price in order to derive possibility for signs of dividend sharing and stock splitting) and the result of the processing is then loaded or stored inside the database that can then be used for further processing or analytic.
Traditional ETL job generally requires heavy and expensive vendor tooling with little support for the needs of specific application. Spark is a general purpose cluster computing solution that can process data in-memory and therefore offers high processing performance compared with batched processing framework such as Hadoop.
Start the vagrant vm
vagrant up
Get bash shell in vagrant vm
vagrant ssh
Set config script permission (you may not need to do this depending on how you execute)
sudo chmod +x /vagrant/config.sh
Move to /vagrant directory
cd /vagrant/config
Execute config
./config.sh
Install Pyspark
./install_pyspark.sh
Move to src directory
cd /vagrant/src
Execute Spark Application

Grabbed data using Python 3.5.2 using scripts in the data_retrieval directory
You only need these steps if you aren't using the config.sh script to set everything up
