This looks pretty comprehensive to me. A few quick suggestions:
- On the VM part: we've actually been avoiding this in all the Databricks
training efforts because the VM itself can be annoying to install and it makes
it harder for people to really use Spark for development (they can learn it,
Scala By the Bay (www.scalabythebay.org) is happy to confirm that our
Spark training on August 11-12 will be run by Databricks and By the
Bay together. It will be focused on Scala, and is the first Spark
Training at a major Scala venue. Spark is written in Scala, with the
unified data pipeline
, perhaps on-site.
What are my options for that?
Databricks doesn't have a contact page, so I figured this would be the next
best place to ask.

If you're in the Bay Area, the Spark Summit would be a great source of

The spark-training scripts are not presently working 100%: the errors
displayed when starting the slaves are shown below.
Possibly a newer location for the files exists (I pulled from
https://github.com/amplab/training-scripts an it is nearly 6 months old)
cp: cannot create regular file `/root
: link_stat /root/mesos-ec2 failed: No such file or directory (2)
But in this latest version the mesos errors appear not to be fatal: the
cluster is in the process of coming up (copying wikipedia data now..)
