Course Outline
1: HDFS (17%)
- Describe the function of HDFS Daemons
- Describe the normal operation of an Apache Hadoop cluster, both in data storage and in data processing.
- Identify current features of computing systems that motivate a system like Apache Hadoop.
- Classify major goals of HDFS Design
- Given a scenario, identify appropriate use case for HDFS Federation
- Identify components and daemon of an HDFS HA-Quorum cluster
- Analyze the role of HDFS security (Kerberos)
- Determine the best data serialization choice for a given scenario
- Describe file read and write paths
- Identify the commands to manipulate files in the Hadoop File System Shell
2: YARN and MapReduce version 2 (MRv2) (17%)
- Understand how upgrading a cluster from Hadoop 1 to Hadoop 2 affects cluster settings
- Understand how to deploy MapReduce v2 (MRv2 / YARN), including all YARN daemons
- Understand basic design strategy for MapReduce v2 (MRv2)
- Determine how YARN handles resource allocations
- Identify the workflow of MapReduce job running on YARN
- Determine which files you must change and how in order to migrate a cluster from MapReduce version 1 (MRv1) to MapReduce version 2 (MRv2) running on YARN.
3: Hadoop Cluster Planning (16%)
- Principal points to consider in choosing the hardware and operating systems to host an Apache Hadoop cluster.
- Analyze the choices in selecting an OS
- Understand kernel tuning and disk swapping
- Given a scenario and workload pattern, identify a hardware configuration appropriate to the scenario
- Given a scenario, determine the ecosystem components your cluster needs to run in order to fulfill the SLA
- Cluster sizing: given a scenario and frequency of execution, identify the specifics for the workload, including CPU, memory, storage, disk I/O
- Disk Sizing and Configuration, including JBOD versus RAID, SANs, virtualization, and disk sizing requirements in a cluster
- Network Topologies: understand network usage in Hadoop (for both HDFS and MapReduce) and propose or identify key network design components for a given scenario
4: Hadoop Cluster Installation and Administration (25%)
- Given a scenario, identify how the cluster will handle disk and machine failures
- Analyze a logging configuration and logging configuration file format
- Understand the basics of Hadoop metrics and cluster health monitoring
- Identify the function and purpose of available tools for cluster monitoring
- Be able to install all the ecosystem components in CDH 5, including (but not limited to): Impala, Flume, Oozie, Hue, Manager, Sqoop, Hive, and Pig
- Identify the function and purpose of available tools for managing the Apache Hadoop file system
5: Resource Management (10%)
- Understand the overall design goals of each of Hadoop schedulers
- Given a scenario, determine how the FIFO Scheduler allocates cluster resources
- Given a scenario, determine how the Fair Scheduler allocates cluster resources under YARN
- Given a scenario, determine how the Capacity Scheduler allocates cluster resources
6: Monitoring and Logging (15%)
- Understand the functions and features of Hadoop’s metric collection abilities
- Analyze the NameNode and JobTracker Web UIs
- Understand how to monitor cluster Daemons
- Identify and monitor CPU usage on master nodes
- Describe how to monitor swap and memory allocation on all nodes
