Become a Big Data Professional

This module offers a one-of-a-kind rich and interactive experience to learn the fundamentals and basics of big Data. Throughout this module, we will have plenty of opportunities to get our hands-on experience with functioning Hadoop clusters.

We will start off by learning about the rise of big data as well as the different types of data like structured, unstructured, and semi-structured data. We will then dive into the fundamentals of big data such as YARN (yet another resource manager), MapReduce, and HDFS (Hadoop Distributed File System). By the end of this module, we will have the foundations in place to start working with big data.
