Duration: 4 Days

You will learn to build powerful data processing applications in this course. You will learn about MapReduce, the Hadoop Distributed Files System (HDFS), and how to write MapReduce code, and you will cover best practices for Hadoop development, debugging, and implementation of workflows.

This course covers concepts addressed on the Cloudera Certified Developer for Apache Hadoop (CCDH) exam.

Proven Impact Exclusive!

You will receive 30 Days of access to an online library where you'll find books and study guides from leading authors on Hadoop, cloud, and big data technologies, including:

  • Ethics of Big Data by Kord Davis and Doug Patterson
  • Hadoop: The Definitive Guide by Cloudera's Tom White
  • Hadoop Operations by Cloudera's Eric Sammer
  • Planning for Big Data by Edd Dumbill
