"Very good end-to-end security features."
"The solution is reliable and stable, it fits our requirements."
"It is helpful to gather and process data."
"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."
"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 product provides better data processing features than other tools."
"MemSQL supports the MySQL protocol, and many functions are similar, so the learning curve is very short."
"It's a distributed relational database, so it does not have a single server, it has multiple servers. Its architecture itself is fast because it has multiple nodes to distribute the workload and process large amounts of data."
"The product's initial setup phase was pretty straightforward, with no complex processes."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to create pipelines, streamline and extract data from the pipelines."
"The ability to store data in memory is a standout feature, enhanced by robust failover mechanisms."
"The paramount advantage is the exceptional speed."
"The product can automatically reinstall and reconfigure in case of a shutdown."
"Cloudera Distribution for Hadoop has a limited feature list and a lot of costs involved."
"There are multiple bugs when we update."
"There is a maximum of a one-gigabyte block size, which is an area of storage that can be improved upon."
"Cloudera Distribution for Hadoop is not always completely stable in some cases, which can be a concern for big data solutions."
"The areas of improvement depend on the scale of the project. For banking customers, security features and an essential budget for commercial licenses would be the top priority. Data regulation could be the most crucial for a project with extensive data or an extra use case."
"The price of this solution could be lowered."
"The user infrastructure and user interface needs to be improved, as well as the performance. The GUI needs to be better."
"I would like to see an improvement in how the solution helps me to handle the whole cluster."
"Poor key distribution can significantly impact performance, requiring a backward approach in design rather than adding tables incrementally."
"There should be more pipelines available because I think that if MemSQL can connect to other services, that would be great."
"It is not the optimal choice for direct data collection through queries, and it's more suited for aggregation tasks."
"For new customers, it's very tough to start. Their documentation isn't organized, and there's no online training available. SingleStore is working on it, but that's a major drawback."
"The product can be developed further to provide more appropriate output to users as it is one of the areas where there are shortcomings."
"We don't get good discounts in Pakistan."
"Having the ability to migrate servers using a single command would be extremely beneficial."
