Another Certification Bagged … 🙂

MapR’s Certification exams are very conceptual and test knowledge deeply. This certification exam covers a balance of Conceptual and API level questions. This is not at all a low hanging fruit.

I used the book HBase Definitive Guide extensively to study the Architecture and internals of HBase. Certain YouTube video tutorials for RowKey design could help additionally to strengthen concepts fast.

To practice HBase concepts really well, I created flash cards on Tiny Cards. These flash cards were very useful in revising the concepts really fast, like in a rapid fire round. I made these flash cards publically accessible, such if anyone wants to get benefitted with them, they can. Here are the link for the same –
