Therefore, Big data Cloudera certification validates true specialists at the highest level of hands-on challenges.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">However, Cloudera certifications do not come to our minds in the first place when we speak about Big data certifications. \u00a0Not to mention, the reason behind it is cracking Big data Cloudera certification exams are too hard and costly. Therefore, when you are going to invest lakhs of money for certification, proper preparation means a lot to you. <\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Whizlabs<\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\"> is proud to announce its new launch &#8211;\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.whizlabs.com\/cloudera-cca-admin-certification\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Cloudera Certified Administrator (CCA-131) Certification<\/a><\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\">In this blog, we will discuss on Cloudera Certified Administrator Certification (CCA131) exam details, along with that how you can prepare for CCA certification.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b><span lang=\"EN-GB\">CCA Certification: A Stepping Stone of Big Data Cloudera Certification<\/span><\/b> <b><\/b><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Previously known as Cloudera Certified Administrator for Apache Hadoop certification has now replaced with CCA Administrator certification (CCA131). Individuals use CCA certification to prove that they have demonstrated their administrative skills and ability to complete administrative functionalities on Apache Hadoop cluster. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">CCA131 is the most sought after cluster administrator skill to deploy Cloudera in the enterprise for organizations working in the Big data domain. It significantly pitches in the areas of installation, configuration, management, security, testing and troubleshooting of Cloudera enterprise cluster.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b><span lang=\"EN-GB\">CCA131 Certification Exam Pattern<\/span><\/b><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">With the change of certification number, the exam pattern has also changed from multiple choices to more hands-on. In the new pattern of the exam, you will have to work on an entirely built, operational Cluster with CDH 5 running on CentOS 7 to complete the tasks on it. In the browser, all your user details like login credentials, account credentials, etc. will be provided.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">The questions will cover various scenarios, and you can solve the problems in any order. <\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Furthermore, it is a mix and match of knowledge on configuration and service change for different scenarios. Some of the scenarios require configuration and service changes using Cloudera Manager, whereas some of the tasks demand Hadoop command line utilities in Linux environment. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">It is important to note that there are no step marks applicable to any problem. Hence, even if you forgot to change the permission of the file despite all required tasks, that will be considered as incorrect. The entire pattern is<\/span> <span lang=\"EN-GB\">mainly to emphasize on your administrative knowledge that you suppose to gain through the certification. The hands-on is a way to prove how well you know the way around the Cloudera cluster. In addition to that, it tests your troubleshooting skills.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Exam Information at a Glance<\/span><\/b><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Number of Questions:<\/span><\/strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\">\u00a08\u201312 questions on performance-based tasks <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Time Limit:<\/span><\/strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\">\u00a0120 minutes<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Passing Score:<\/span><\/strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\">\u00a070%<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Language:<\/span><\/strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\">\u00a0English<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Price:<\/span><\/strong><span lang=\"EN-GB\"> USD 295 <\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Cloudera Certified Administrator Certification\u00a0<\/span><\/b><b><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Exam Objectives<\/span><\/b><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">CCA131 pays all the attention to required skills of a Hadoop administrator on Cloudera cluster, h<\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\">ere they are:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"1\" type=\"1\">\n<li><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Installation \u2013 Provides all demonstrative skills and understanding of the installation procedure for Cloudera Manager.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Configuration \u2013 Covers basic and advanced configuration areas to administer a Cloudera Hadoop cluster efficiently.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Management \u2013 Covers the maintenance and management skill to support day-to-day operations in the enterprise cluster.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Security \u2013 Helps to gain relevant services and configuration skill the cluster needs to meet the security policy.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Testing \u2013 Provides fine-tuning and testing skills on operational metrics and cluster performance.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Troubleshooting \u2013 Covers the areas to demonstrate the ability of an administrator to find the cause analysis of a problem.

Focus on the wording of the question along with the file systems.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span lang=\"EN-GB\">\u00a0Understand the directory location asked in the question. Not necessarily all directories that you are going to create will be in HDFS.
