Each block will be stored in different nodes and will be further replicated in other n-1 node. Where n is replication factor. In no case, replicas will be on same nodes for each individual block. For example A will be in node N1, then it's replica A1 and A2 will not be stored in the node N1. However, A,B,C can exist in same node N1, in case number of node is less. read less

Hello, I have completed B.com , MBA fin & M and 5 yr working experience in SAP PLM 1 - Engineering documentation management 2 - Documentation management Please suggest me which IT course suitable to my career growth and scope in market ? Thanks.
If you think you are strong in finance and costing, I would suggest you a SAP FICO course which is definitely always in demand. if you have an experience as a end user on SAP PLM / Documentation etc, even a course on SAP PLM DMS should be good.
