Course Description
Prerequisites: Working with Oozie requires some basic knowledge of the Hadoop eco-system and running MapReduce jobs
Taught by a team which includes 2 Stanford-educated, ex-Googlers and 2 ex-Flipkart Lead Analysts. This team has decades of practical experience in working with large-scale data processing jobs.
Oozie is like the formidable, yet super-efficient admin assistant who can get things done for you, if you know how to ask
Let's parse that
formidable, yet super-efficient: Oozie is formidable because it is entirely written in XML, which is hard to debug when things go wrong. However, once you've figured out how to work with it, it's like magic. Complex dependencies, managing a multitude of jobs at different time schedules, managing entire data pipelines are all made easy with Oozie
get things done for you: Oozie allows you to manage Hadoop jobs as well as Java programs, scripts and any other executable with the same basic set up. It manages your dependencies cleanly and logically.
if you know how to ask: Knowing the right configurations parameters which gets the job done, that is the key to mastering Oozie
What's Covered:
Workflow Management: Workflow specifications, Action nodes, Control nodes, Global configuration, real examples with MapReduce and Shell actions which you can run and tweak
Time-based and data-based triggers for Workflows: Coordinator specification, Mimicing simple cron jobs, specifying time and data availability triggers for Workflows, dealing with backlog, running time-triggered and data-triggered coordinator actions
Data Pipelines using Bundles: Bundle specification, the kick-off time for bundles, running a bundle on Oozie

Excellent course for anybody whose learn Apache Oozie fromzero. They are very clear in their explanations and the paractical part is also clear. The bonus part is excellent for beginners Thanks a lot for this course
By Adrian Avila on 12/28/2020
Good course, very well explained all concepts but I think it needs more examples and maybe one complete exercise including the 3 topics: workflows, coordinators and bundles.
By Himanshu Shekhar on 5/3/2020
Just Awesome!!! The course is very good for those who are new for Oozie. The way trainer has explained is very good. After this course, you will feel confidence in oozie.

Course is good, one point of feedback is the audio levels between the presenter and the music that plays at the end of a topic. Deafening volume increase with headphones on, look out!

Excellent course provided by the team. The trainer has explained it very well, which could be understood by a lay man also. Thanks a lot team
By Akshay Dange on 1/30/2018
Could have covered : 1. regex search on oozie UI. 2. Interact with pure oozie via rest services. 3. Could have provided a virtual box with all the setup directly.(may be) Overall loved the course... good job.

Presenter's accent is terrible. And the layout is really bad, needs redesign. One of the worst choices of font types, images and element disposition ever. Still too many hello world so far.
By Shouvanik Haldar on 8/12/2017
Janani explains the concepts so vivid, it helps clear the concepts. It is also great for newcomers with no OOZIE experience. The demo is very vivid and clear
By Krishnan S. P. T. on 7/8/2017
