Kumar further added, although, 55% of SimpliLearn’s customers are foreign, they make upto  70% of the company’s revenues.

While companies now concentrating more towards preventing security breaches and hacks, big data analytics and Hadoop technologies have become some of the most searched after skills in the talent market, and trained experts  in the field are better chances to grow in comparison to their peers.
