This three-day Apache Hadoop training course is designed for administrators who deploy and manage Apache Hadoop clusters. This course will walk you through installation, provisioning and ongoing resource management within a Hadoop cluster. You will leave with a valuable set of best practices that have been developed over years of working with Hadoop in production so that you can optimize your Hadoop clusters.
We’ll work through the full lifecycle of an Apache Hadoop deployment using realistic hands-on lab experiments. You’ll learn from our experience over the past six years of working with some of the largest Hadoop clusters in the world.
At course completion all students are provided complimentary access to the Hortonworks Apache Hadoop Administrator Certification program.
