Hi Clint,

I have done My Masters in Computer science from India. I started working in cloud(hadoop) in 2011. I have devloped a project using Hadoop( "Iris REcognition on Hadoop: A biometric system implemetation on Cloud Computing") and also published an IEEE paper, based on this work.  After that I did some other research work on other cloud issues also like speculative execution etc. My main expereince is from academic background, but now I want to switch my carrer in Big Data. During this duration I have now all over knowledge of Hadoop eco system. 

Few months back I am moved to US. Now I am planning to appear for cloudera certification exams (CCA 175, cloudera apache spark and hadoop developer). I hope it will help me to enter in this field.

I will be really thankful to you if you have any suggestions or guidelines for me.

Thanks 

Shelly
