If we set the number of Reducer to 0 (by setting job. setNumreduceTasks(0)), then no reducer will execute and no aggregation will take place. In such case, we will prefer “Map-only job” in Hadoop. In Map-Only job, the map does all task with its InputSplit and the reducer do no job

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.
