Cloudera and Hortonworks are among the best options for earning a credible big data hadoop certification but deciding on as to which one is best for you depends on multiple factors. For instance, if your goal is to work for a specific company XYZ then you would want to first assess what kind of a Hadoop certification the employer is looking for. If the hadoop job opening is specific about certification from a particular vendor like Hortonworks or Cloudera then the decision should be based on that. Other factors include cost of hadoop certification, validity of the certification, etc.What is important is not from where a professional has got the hadoop certification but what they have learnt while achieving the big data certification, regardless of whether it is from Cloudera, Hortonworks, MapR or any other vendor. Both Cloudera Hadoop Certification and Hortonworks Hadoop Certification test your practical hadoop knowledge on data ingestion, data transformation and data analysis helping big data recruiters identify candidates who can work in hadoop environment. The only difference is that Cloudera hadoop certification accredits a professional with acknowledgment for both hadoop and spark skills in a single certification. Whilst, Hortonworks has two separate certifications to test the knowledge of hadoop and spark respectively. read less

Ok, after graduated where some people placed in campus placements and some people will go further studies and some are will get refer to their company's and some people will get a employee chance as Third party vendor. Now,coming to job after working hard on one technology for at least 1 year will get bored for every one in IT industry and they don't have a chance to do R & D and don't get a new requirements and don't have a chance to move in to new technology and don't have a chance to put quit for a job because their personal reason. After getting bored on one technology they have moved into another technology their same programming and same requirement but only different syntax's, different programming. Is this happen for every developer, every programmer in IT industry. As I am totally confused which technology I have choose and sometimes I want to quit. According to Booming technologies I choose PHP and than Unix and now the same requirement same work and I am unable to think different in IT industry to move which technology to put challenge. And now I want to move into another technology, I am confused to choose there are infinite technologies in IT industry.Please guide me which technology I have to choose to get complete knowledge. As some one is telling to choose Hadoop technology. Thanks & Regards, Mahesh
