Business needs to train employees and projects managers on Big Data technologies.
Based on their needs, I prepared a customized training session on Big Data project management with an overview of Hadoop technologies for a group of managers and executives.
This customized Big Data training had to:
- Introduce the characteristics and definition of Big Data by detailing its 5 V: Volume, Velocity, Variety, Veracity, and Value.
- Cover An overview of Big Data technologies (Hadoop and Spark ecosystem)
- Focus on the management aspect of Big Data project and return on investment.
By the end of the training session there was a workshop which was attended by Systems Administrators team. This workshop aimed to show the steps to set up a Cloudera / Hortonworks Hadoop Cluster with many hands-on exercices and examples.
