Hadoop and Big Data are becoming the new hot trends of the industry , being the most sought out skills in the market.There are various vendors and online training providers coming up with a nice explanation of some of the core concepts underlying Hadoop frameworks like Mapreduce,HDFS and various components involved in Hadoop Ecosystem.I will try to list down some of these resources here -
