SKILL BENCHMARK
Data Infrastructures with Apache Cassandra Proficiency (Advanced Level)
- 17m
- 17 questions
The Data Infrastructures with Apache Cassandra Proficiency (Advanced Level) benchmark measures your ability to enumerate and contrast collection fields in Cassandra and understand partitioning and clustering keys. You will be evaluated on your skills in working with JSON and CSV data, identifying types of queries that are and are not allowed in Cassandra, creating indexes on Cassandra tables, performing grouping and aggregation operations, and working programmatically with Cassandra from a Java client. A learner who scores high on this benchmark demonstrates that they have the skills to work on Cassandra without any supervision.
