This community now features a modern look and a simplified experience that makes it easier to find what you need, when you need it. Below is all the information you need to know to get started and get engaged.
Navigating the Updated Cloudera Community
Our new Cloudera Community is easier to navigate with its updated interface and a singular content feed that contains all the information you need right on the homepage. You can quickly view open questions or solutions by clicking the tabs or by using the search function to find specific content. And you can easily navigate to areas of the community by using the “Browse” and “Contribute” menus. Want to quickly get to our blog and other areas? Simply click the new “Explore the Community” drop-down menu on the right-hand side of most pages.
