This course is intended for
This is an introductory-level course designed to teach experienced systems administrators how to install, maintain, monitor, troubleshoot, optimize, and secure Hadoop. Previous Hadoop experience is not required.
Overview
Working within in an engaging, hands-on learning environment, guided by our expert team, attendees will learn to:
Understand the benefits of distributed computing
Understand the Hadoop architecture (including HDFS and MapReduce)
Define administrator participation in Big Data projects
Plan, implement, and maintain Hadoop clusters
Deploy and maintain additional Big Data tools (Pig, Hive, Flume, etc.)
Plan, deploy and maintain HBase on a Hadoop cluster
Monitor and maintain hundreds of servers
Pinpoint performance bottlenecks and fix them
Apache Hadoop is an open source framework for creating reliable and distributable compute clusters. Hadoop provides an excellent platform (with other related frameworks) to process large unstructured or semi-structured data sets from multiple sources to dissect, classify, learn from and make suggestions for business analytics, decision support, and other advanced forms of machine intelligence.
This is an introductory-level, hands-on lab-intensive course geared for the administrator (new to Hadoop) who is charged with maintaining a Hadoop cluster and its related components. You will learn how to install, maintain, monitor, troubleshoot, optimize, and secure Hadoop.
