Performing download analysis using a Spark Batch Job

This scenario applies only to subscription-based Talend products with Big Data.

In this scenario, you create a Spark Batch Job to analyze how often a given product is downloaded.

In this Job, you analyze the download preference of some specific customers known to your customer base.
