Course Description
This 3-day course is designed to give you a better understanding of Big Data topics focusing on Hadoop. It covers ins and outs of Big Data to clarify is it a buzzword, catch-phrase or something useful in our/your daily business. Also, it describes when we are considering something to be Big Data system, how architecture of typical Big Data system looks, what is ecosystem and who key players within Big Data space are? Is it related to data volume or technology in background? Does it replace existing technologies or is it enhancing them in joint existence? It will cover how to implement Hadoop jobs to extract business value from large and varied data sets, how to develop queries to simplify data analysis (with Pig, Hive, Cassandra and Impala).

The training with Thomas went very well, and I felt the course overall was well balanced. Thomas was able to help with my many specific questions related to our internal project requirements, and he was helpful, clear, and concise throughout – 5 star /excellent!

“Hands-down the best technical training I have taken! The methods of progressively building reports, adding complexity and features as time goes on, was fantastic.”
- Chris, Cirrus Aircraft
Thoroughly enjoyed the training. The trainer was fantastic! It is rare but always an awesome experience when a trainer is also an experienced practioner with a breadth of knowledge and hands on experience… even well beyond the subject matter at hand. I had the feeling that the trainer could have answered in detail any question we might have had related to not only BDM but Hadoop and other relevant big data topics as well. Time well spent and I hope to encounter Tomi again.
