    Hadoop is open source.

    • ALWAYS True

    • True only for Apache Hadoop

    • True only for IBM

    • ALWAYS False

    Correct Answer
    A. ALWAYS True
    Explanation
    Hadoop is an open-source framework for processing and storing large data sets. Being open source means that the source code of Hadoop is freely available to the public, allowing anyone to view, modify, and distribute it. Therefore, the statement "Hadoop is open source" is always true, regardless of any specific implementation or vendor.

    What is Hive used as?

    • Hadoop query engine

    • MapReduce wrapper

    • Hadoop SQL interface

    • All of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Hadoop query engine
    Explanation
    Hive is used as a Hadoop query engine. It provides a SQL-like interface to query and analyze data stored in Hadoop. It translates SQL queries into MapReduce jobs, allowing users to leverage the power of Hadoop for data processing and analysis. Hive also provides a schema on read feature, which allows users to apply structure to data stored in Hadoop, making it easier to query and analyze. Therefore, the correct answer is "Hadoop query engine".

     What is HBase used as?

    • Tool for Random and Fast Read/Write operations in Hadoop

    • Faster Read only query engine in Hadoop

    • MapReduce alternative in Hadoop

    • Fast MapReduce layer in Hadoop

    Correct Answer
    A. Tool for Random and Fast Read/Write operations in Hadoop
    Explanation
    HBase is used as a tool for random and fast read/write operations in Hadoop. It provides a distributed, scalable, and consistent database for storing and retrieving large amounts of structured and semi-structured data. HBase is designed to handle high volumes of data with low-latency access, making it suitable for applications that require real-time access to data. It is often used for use cases such as real-time analytics, log processing, and recommendation systems.

     Which of the following are NOT true for Hadoop?

    • It’s a tool for OLTP

    • It supports structured and unstructured data analysis

    • It aims for vertical scaling out/in scenarios

    • Both (a) and (c)

    Correct Answer
    A. It’s a tool for OLTP
    Explanation
    Hadoop is not a tool for OLTP (Online Transaction Processing). It is a tool for handling big data and performing batch processing on large datasets. It is designed for processing and analyzing structured and unstructured data, and it aims for horizontal scaling out/in scenarios, not vertical scaling. Therefore, the correct answer is "It's a tool for OLTP."

    What is the default HDFS block size?

    • 32 MB

    • 45 MB

    • 128MB

    • 128KB

    Correct Answer
    A. 32 MB
    Explanation
    The default HDFS block size is 32 MB. This means that when a file is stored in HDFS, it will be divided into blocks of 32 MB each. This block size is configurable and can be changed based on the requirements of the system. A larger block size can improve performance by reducing the overhead of managing smaller blocks, but it can also result in wasted space if the file is smaller than the block size. Conversely, a smaller block size can reduce wasted space but may increase the overhead of managing a larger number of blocks.

    Which of the following class is responsible for converting inputs to key-value Pairs of Map Reduce

    • FileInputFormat

    • InputSplit

    • RecordReader

    • Mapper

    Correct Answer
    A. FileInputFormat
    Explanation
    FileInputFormat is the correct answer because it is a class in Hadoop that is responsible for converting inputs, such as files, into key-value pairs for the MapReduce process. It is used as the input format for MapReduce jobs and handles the splitting of input files into input splits, which are then processed by the RecordReader. The RecordReader is responsible for reading the records within each input split and converting them into key-value pairs. Therefore, FileInputFormat plays a crucial role in the input phase of the MapReduce process.
