Basically we can share ideas on how we can prepare best for the exam. Yes, you are right, all the line items are included in certification page.

Hi, Let me introduce myself. I have 14 years of experience. 11 years into IT and initial 3 years into teaching in university and technical instituations. My IT experience mostly speard into java/j2ee technology stack. Since last 2 years I have created an interest in Hadoop and its ecosystem. I had been going through different topics on and off to learn this new technology. But in last 6 to 9 months I have raised a strong passion towards Hadoop ecosystem. The more I am learning I am becoming more passionate. But now the hadoop fever has gone to that extent where I am planning to quit my regular job and become a serious Hadoop developper/consultant.   I am leaving my current company in 2 weeks. After that I will go for CCA 175 cloudera certification. Hope that helps in kick starting my full time career in Data Science.   Thanks, Satya ... View more
