We have released the first two screencasts in a series of short hands-on video training courses we will be publishing to help new users get up and running with Spark in minutes.
The first Spark screencast is called First Steps With Spark and walks you through downloading and building Spark, as well as using the Spark shell, all in less than 10 minutes!
The second screencast is a 2 minute overview of the Spark documentation.
We hope you find these screencasts useful.
