Cloudera Introduction to Data Science:


Building Recommender Systems
Take Your Knowledge to the Next Level with Clouderas Data Science
Training and Certification
Data scientists build information platforms to ask and answer previously unimaginable
questions. Learn how data science helps companies reduce costs, increase profits, improve
products, retain customers, and identify new opportunities.
Cloudera Universitys three-day course helps participants understand what data scientists
do and the problems they solve. Through in-class simulations, participants apply data
science methods to real-world challenges in different industries and, ultimately, prepare for
data scientist roles in the field.

Hands-On Hadoop
Through instructor-led discussion and interactive, hands-on exercises, participants will
navigate the Hadoop ecosystem, learning topics such as:
The role of data scientists, vertical use cases, and business applications of data
science
Where and how to acquire data, methods for evaluating source data, and data
transformation and preparation
Types of statistics and analytical methods and their relationship
Machine learning fundamentals and breakthroughs, the importance of algorithms, and
data as a platform
How to implement and manage recommenders using Apache Mahout and how to set
up and evaluate data experiments
Steps for deploying new analytics projects to production and tips for working at scale

Audience & Prerequisites


This course is suitable for developers, data analysts, and statisticians with basic knowledge
of Apache Hadoop: HDFS, MapReduce, Hadoop Streaming, and Apache Hive. Students
should have proficiency in a scripting language; Python is strongly preferred, but familiarity
with Perl or Ruby is sufficient.

Data Scientist Certification


Upon completion of the course, attendees are encouraged to continue their study and
register for the Cloudera Certified Professional: Data Scientist (CCP:DS) exam. Certification
is a great differentiator; it helps establish you as a leader in the field, providing employers
and customers with tangible evidence of your skills and expertise.
