Apache owns the database world, most of the severs worldwide runs of apache based engines including SQL and millions of websites runs on Apache mostly like WordPress and when you have to retrieve data and perhaps Data Engineering on an existing system, the Apache Spark with Hadoop makes it a lot easier for a lot of Data Engineers out there so I think it will only increase with time.
One more skill in your toolbelt will only work in your advance so surely go for it.
