Spark/Scala vs Springboot/Java
I’m part of two teams - working on distributed systems with HDFS storage (no cloud). Tech stack is Kafka, Spark, Scala, Hbase Other project is Java Springboot on PCF Which one should I prefer working more for a better career growth ? My target is to get into big tech Senior roles for higher tc. YOE: 6 TC: 150k
1st one. Make a poll.
Even if the storage is on-prem (Cloudera) ?
Yes, salesforce has both and look at it's infra. It's just api call wrapper even in cloud like s3a or hdfs client.
AI AI will get you into the big tech
Do you mind elaborating ? You mean using AI in my preparation?
Without more information,Take the hdfs storage option. Looks like it has more scale and scope to solve complex distributed systems problems. U can get into ML engineering roles later on for setting up model training infrastructure Ur spring boot service might just be a simple crud application with no real scale. Again I don’t know what that service is spring boot and Java doesn’t add any points. If that service is awesome , things would be different. What do they do with their spring boot and cloud infrastructure??
Tech doesn’t matter as a senior. You just need marketing.
OF ?
Of yourself. Visibility and impact is the only thing
Having “Option*:” in the poll is redundant, imo. Its already an OR poll
The bigger data one, biggest data
brah, why do google recruiter connect me with fullstack even though I've distributed systems work only. Can you refer me for any such role ?
