This course is part of learning path “Big Data Foundations – Level 2” offered by IBM Cognitive Class. To earn this badge and the certificate I had to satisfactory complete the exam.
This course introduced me to Apache Hadoop, a free, open source, Java-based programming framework. I learned:
- about Hadoop’s architecture and core components, such as MapReduce and the Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS)
- how to describe what Big Data is and the need for Hadoop to be able to process that data in a timely manner
- how to add and remove nodes from Hadoop clusters, how to check available disk space on each node, how to modify configuration parameters
- about other Apache projects that are part of the Hadoop ecosystem, including Pig, Hive, HBase, ZooKeeper, Oozie, Sqoop, Flume, among others
