Urgent Queries for CCD410 certification exam

[#1]

I am planning to give the Certification exam CCD410 in first week of August but I have certain queries regarding it:

1. How do I purchase CCD410 exam, Do I need to directly purchase it from Cloudera site?

If i need to purchase it from Cloudera site then being in India how will I pay in dollars? or their site internally takes care of it?

2. After purchasing the exam, how do i appear for it because i see that now they don't conduct exam through third party(Pearson-vue)?

Does it mean i have to give it from my personal laptop?

3. I have also seen somewhere that CCP-Data scientist exam has replaced CCD410. Is it correct or if we still have CCD410 and is it still old

"Multiple-choice" pattern?

Please reply as soon as you can, as i want to complete this certificarion ASAP.

Thanks in advance!

Can somebody please reply to my queries. I have posted 3 different queries and nobody has replied to even a single one of them.

Even i'm planned to write the exam this week.

1) You can buy the exam in cloudera site using a credit card which i did (site internelly calculates the INR conversion).

2) You need to schedule the exam through https://www.examslocal.com. Go though http://cloudera.com/content/cloudera/en/training/certification/faq.html.

3) Coludera gonna replace CCD 410 with CCP: Data Engineer, but CCD 410 is vaild till Dec 2015 or exam EOL.

Hope this helps !!

Hi Sathya,

Thanks for your reply, Can I have your email id? When are you going to write the test?
According to faqs i think we need to give the exam through our own setup(May be our personal laptop)?
How did your prepare for the exam?
I had taken some training and then read the book "Hadoop in action".
