- Ambari for cluster administration, monitoring, and routine tasks; installation, use. In this track, all exercises and labs are performed within the Ambari cluster manager and Hortonworks Data Platform (HDP 2.0)
Requirements
- comfortable with basic Linux system administration
- basic scripting skills
Knowledge of Hadoop and Distributed Computing is not required, but will be introduced and explained in the course.
Lab environment
Zero Install : There is no need to install hadoop software on students’ machines! A working hadoop cluster will be provided for students.
Students will need the following
- an SSH client (Linux and Mac already have ssh clients, for Windows Putty is recommended)
- a browser to access the cluster. We recommend Firefox browser with FoxyProxy extension installed

Ahmet Bolat - Accenture Industrial SS
Course - Python, Spark, and Hadoop for Big Data
During the exercises, James explained me every step whereever I was getting stuck in more detail. I was completely new to NIFI. He explained the actual purpose of NIFI, even the basics such as open source. He covered every concept of Nifi starting from Beginner Level to Developer Level.
