Camelia

I found the tutorial very useful, with step-by-step explanations. The course material manages to cover a large spectrum of aspects, both architectural and operational, in dense short lessons. The labs provide practical end-to-end examples .

Roman

Dear all, The course is excellent because it saves time from reading big books to learn Hadoop. I prefer agile practice: try to achive small results ASAP. I didn't know anything about Hadoop two months ago. But these two months were enough for me to create 7 nodes Hadoop cluster which everyday computes recommendations for our site...

Eugeniu

The course is a great opportunity to get some quick practical experience with Hadoop and its related subprojects. Also the provided vm image could be used for future projects and deepening your understanding of Hadoop framework. Waiting for Hadoop Fundamentals II to be ready :)

Joao

It is the perfect web site to get into new technologies and have a hint of the main and newest projects around big data, open source... The material is really well organized and easy to understand and go through. The labs provide hands-on to the technologies guide you step bu step in the different tasks.

Sandeep

...Content is well segregated into different lessons and allowed me to progress smoothly. Flume was something new to me, it was interesting to read about it. The format of a lesson with a transcript, video built on a ppt along with a demo, and labs is well-organized and useful.

Andreas

The course is very interesting, because it explains the components of this new system...The first part was very well detailed, the installation part for the different environments. It was very easy to create the machines in RightScale and register in AWS, or download the application locally... Good work, I will be waiting for the next tutorials.

Madhavi

The lessons in Hadoop Fundamentals I are well organized. The lessons start with an overview of the topic being covered, before going into the finer details. It would however have been helpful if the lessons could cover applications of  each of the topics. For example, the scenarios where usage of pig/hive/jaql is well suited. It would also be useful if mapreduce lab sessions could go over the code for wordcount program in detail before running  the program. It would also be useful if the lab transcripts could give examples of what parts need to be modified to execute certain sections in the  lab tutorial, in the cloud. Overall, the course is well thought out and gives all the details needed to learn the fundamentals of Hadoop.

Bhupesh

After much research in the internet I ended up with the tutorial LEARN HADOOP from the BIGDATAUNIVERSITY. In this tutorial the way THEY organized the videos are excellent. It's the very helpfull resource to learn and understand the compents required/involved in the Hadoop ecosystem. I am looking forward to get enrolled for the Hadoop Fundamentals II. Thank you

Luca

Course is nicely split in small parts very well suitable for self peaced learning, even with short timeslot available. I appreciate the availability of Video AND Transcript for each training session. I had on problem with Flume lab run on Virtual Machine: Flume Master was not starting.

Very impressive - showing the power of Hadoop, BigInsights and Streaming Data analysis for Big Data. I was particularly enthusiastic about the videos from David Barnes. The demo was clear, consice and had the actual software running to show the power of BigInsights and BigSheets. I also enjoyed Tina Chen's video, but I wish there was an actual demo of it in action. Overall, great job - I am definitely interested in learning more about BigData and feel it is big part of companies in the future, and see future in it for myself as well.

Paul

Very good introductory course [on Text Analytics]. I followed along the lessons in IBM Data Studio. That was really practical.

Stefan

FANTASTIC COURSE! I came in with zero knowledge on AQL some regex knowledge. After this course I can already start thinking about how to do quite sophisticated text annotators! The Regex tutorial at the end is the best I have come across on the web yet - and I have looked a fair bit! Will definitely recommend this to any people interested in Regex and AQL.

Hi! I am familiar with dbs, as I interacted before in my work (quality assurance), but I have to learn more, now, with my new project which consists of testing db services. I like this course because it's very well structured. I had all this material for reading, but as other times when I had to self educate myself, I didn't know where to start... and I often found myself starting with more books at a time and never got to finish them. This is why I was saying that is very well structured. First watch the videos for an overview, then read chapter X from book A, and chapter x, y, z from book B. Then summarize with exercises. So far, I can't criticize anything... Didn't find anything I disliked about the course...Thank you for a new learning experience! Cristian

Dmitry

Hello,I have just completed with final exams at SQL Fundamentals course and waiting for results...Thanks a lot for this resource!!!!Videos are short, but very informative! Specially thanks for free books for our campus! I will glad to take part in another BigDataUniversity courses (I hope, that I've graduated SQL basic course;) )I suppose it would be DB2 and Data Studio Essential Trainings, while I hope to get IBM DB2 Certificate in future...

Dwight

Excellent step by step instructions. Great examples. Well laid out videos for the novice.

In my opinion I believe this course is very well organized structure, the exercise it's simple to do and understand, the content is very comprehensive and dealt with the fundamental concepts for the creation of databases, which are of vital importance.

Cristian

This is a very well put together course for IBM DataStudio for beginners which covers some basics of the Eclipse platform also. Thanks for another great course!

Aakash (India)

The videos are very informative and to the point and also highlight the applications and alternate scenarios very well. This course was an excellent revision of core concepts for me.

Balázs (USA)

The training material has short, easy to digest videos, with separately available transcripts allowing to execute the same commands after watching the videos. Each command line in the transcript can be cut and pasted making the examples easy to reproduce... Everything works right out of the box as described in the course materials. Online support on the Course Forums is excellent, most questions were answered before even I encountered the issue... The course materials contain excellent references: every assignment and example has the right reference..

Conor (USA)

Great introductory class!  Thanks so much.  Using the cloud for the labs made this course even more interesting.

Frank (Australia)

The option to download all files and videos in a single archive was very useful since my work network is very poor. The videos played well, and the transcript at the bottom was very useful as sometimes my workplace is too noisy even when wearing headphones. Online based training works well to get around time zone issues for the course work.

Ionut (Romania)

Great courses! They are completing very well the existing books about Hadoop

Melih (Turkey)

The Hadoop Fundamentals I course was very useful. I suggest it to all Hadoop beginners.

Mukund (India)

A good high level training material which provides an overview of mostly all the components related to Big Data, quite helpful for developers as well as newbies.

Panuwat (Thailand)

I think the course is very good for Hadoop beginners. All of the basic concepts of Hadoop in the video can be easily understood. Also, there are labs that help students to understand the practical use of Hadoop commands...
