C language Faculty (online Classes )

Data Locality in Hadoop means moving computation close to data rather than moving data towards computation. Hadoop stores data in HDFS, which splits files into blocks and distribute among various data nodes. When a mapReduce job is submitted, it is divided into map jobs and reduce jobs.

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.

I want to take online classes on database/ ETL testing.
