@chancabe if you check the CCA131 certification page and look at the bottom you will find information on the testing cluster. 

 

Each user is given their own CDH5 (currently 5.10.1) cluster running on CentOS 7.3.

Thank you for asking @ABP. Cloudera doesn't have such a book. If you are wondering what to study for the CCA Administrator Exam (CCA131), you can find out on the certification page which lists:

  • Number of questions
  • Time limit
  • Score required to pass
  • Pricing
  • How the test is evaluated and scored
  • Audience and Prerequisites
  • Exam delivery and cluster information

Of course the part you would be interested in is listed as well in the Required Skills section. This section lists all the skills you will need to be able to perform as part of the test.
