Overview

A simple Spark project that uses Pyspark to extract data from the NYC taxi dataset, perform some transformations and store the data in GCS/BigQuery.

The python notebook present in the notebooks folder can be executed locally in a Jupyter notebook. After running, the data is stored in the 'result' folder.

In the code folder, two python files run on a GCP Dataproc cluster. One of the files stores the data in Cloud Storage while the other file stores it in BigQuery.
