Introduction to Hadoop Administration
Introduction to Hadoop Administration Course Details:
Apache Hadoop is an open source framework for creating reliable and distributable compute clusters. Hadoop provides an excellent platform to process large unstructured or semi-structured data sets from multiple sources to dissect, classify, learn, and make suggestions for business analytics, decision support, and other advanced forms of machine intelligence.
This course will teach you how to install, maintain, monitor, troubleshoot, optimize, and secure Hadoop. Previous Hadoop experience is not required.
