We performed a comparison between Cloudera Distribution for Hadoop and MongoDB based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two NoSQL Databases solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The features I find most valuable is that the solution is that it is easy to install and to work with. It starts with the installation and from there on the management is very simple and centralized."
"The main advantage is the storage is less expensive."
"CDH has a wide variety of proprietary tools that we use, like Impala. So from that perspective, it's quite useful as opposed to something open-source. We get a lot of value from Cloudera's proprietary tools."
"I don't see any performance issues."
"We're now able to store large volumes of data through Cloudera Distribution for Hadoop. We're able to push large volumes of data to the platform, and that used to be a challenge, especially when storing a terabyte of information. This is the area where Cloudera Distribution for Hadoop improved the organization."
"It has the best proxy, security, and support features compared to open-source products."
"The most valuable feature is Kubernetes."
"The product as a whole is good."
"Sharding is an excellent feature of MongoDB."
"Its flexibility, and cost. It is reasonably priced."
"MongoDB is cool. There is a difference between relational databases and newer databases like MongoDB. MongoDB is scalable and fast."
"It facilitates the generation of heatmaps for graphical data analysis."
"It is convenient to use because we can do manipulations with the JSON data that we get. There are also a lot of joins and associations with MongoDB, which makes it easy to use for us."
"My impression is that the initial setup is straightforward."
"The integration capabilities of MongoDB are fine for the solutions that we use in our company."
"MongoDB is extremely developer-friendly because when you are starting, there is very little time needed upfront in terms of planning."
"The governance aspect of the solution should be improved."
"There are better solutions out there that have more features than this one."
"Without the big data environment, we cannot store all of this data live. We have billions of records and terabytes of storage to be used. It's not an option actually for us to have a big data environment."
"It could be faster and more user-friendly."
"The price of this solution could be lowered."
"This is a very expensive solution."
"The solution is not fit for on-premise distributions."
"Cloudera's support is extremely bad and cannot be relied on."
"Simplifying the aggregation framework would be an improvement."
"I don't see a lot of areas that need improvement."
"Data encryption is possible using third-party tools but they should have their own encryption capability built-in to this solution."
"They could provide more documentation and examples for adding pipeline stages."
"We'd like technical support to respond faster to queries."
"MongoDB is a very useful and convenient choice, but sometimes for more complex projects, there are certain niche requirements that appear, so using a different tool could be beneficial. It raises the complexity of the architecture, but it could be beneficial to the world, the features, the ease of the features which are being implemented."
"Lacks sufficient scalability and elasticity."
"They could improve the UI and the analytics part."
