BURLINGAME, CA–(Marketwire – May 28, 2009) – Cloudera, the commercial Hadoop™ company, today announced the Cloudera Certified Hadoop Professional (CCHP) credential — the industry’s first certification program for Hadoop and MapReduce. The certification program documents and tests the recipients understanding of big data analysis and how to manage big data using the Hadoop platform.
The CCHP credential requires successful completion of a test administered by Cloudera — after which the passing participant’s test date is registered and available for third party CCHP certification. The first CCHP test is scheduled for June 23rd, 2009 in Washington, DC and costs $499 to register.
“For those working with Hadoop and MapReduce, a CCHP certification serves to establish them as a trusted and valuable resource,” said Christophe Bisciglia, Founder at Cloudera. “Developers, technical leaders, and data management specialists can use a CCHP credential to demonstrate their experience with Hadoop and MapReduce while customers can reduce risk by relying on contractors and suppliers who retain current Cloudera Certification for their personnel.”
This CCHP test focuses on the basic principles of large-scale data processing with Hadoop and MapReduce. Specifically, it will cover:
* Hadoop Basics
* Data Import / Export
* MapReduce Algorithms and Applications
