Everything about this training was excellent. No complaints. I would recommend this course to others.

Gopakumar

here are many online trainings available and believe meâ¦Its not quite easy to choose as everyone promises the best. After careful reviews and attending demos, I picked â Edureka and I realized that my decision was correct in every aspect. I attended 2 courses - Big Data Hadoop and PySpark. The trainer dived deep into concepts in Hadoop, like pig, hive, Sqoop, NoSQL, and Map Reduce. When comes PySpark too, the trainer explained in detail - Spark streaming, Spark SQL, Spark RDD, Spark Machine Learning libraries (Spark MLlib) and Phython.

edureka! is efficiently able to provide effective e-learning for Big Data. All the required material for learning is kept online in the Learning Management System (LMS) along with the recordings of class so that we can refer back any part of the class. Also, edureka! 24x7 support is very helping and prompt in its service. Thanks edureka! for providing great and effective way of learning.

Abhishek Shreshta

I have taken two courses (Informatica and Teradata) through Edureka. I think this is best online training platform that I had ever taken. I am very happy for getting trained from EDUREKA. The overall course is very much organized (Awesome). All the labs were on real time solution. After the training, I was confident to pursue my career in informatica and with a month I got a full time opportunity as a informatica developer. There was separate interview preparation session which really helps me to crack the informatica interview. Next, I am planning to take Big Data class. My overall experience with the edureka was awesome. I highly recommend everyone to join Edureka whoever is interested in learning online. Thank you Edureka!!

Sunil Bhardwaj Solution Architect
