We performed a comparison between Cloudera DataFlow and Hortonworks Data Platform based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Databricks, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Confluent and others in Streaming Analytics."DataFlow's performance is okay."
"This solution is very scalable and robust."
"The initial setup was not so difficult"
"The Hortonworks solution is so stable. It is working as a production system, without any error, without any downtime. If I have downtime, it is mostly caused by the hardware of the computers."
"Ambari Web UI: user-friendly."
"It is a scalable platform."
"The scalability is the key reason why we are on this platform."
"Hortonworks should not be expensive at all to those looking into using it."
"The product offers a fairly easy setup process."
"The upgrades and patches must come from Hortonworks."
"Now, using this solution, it is much cheaper to have all of the data available for searching, not in real-time, but whenever there is a pending request."
"Although their workflow is pretty neat, it still requires a lot of transformation coding; especially when it comes to Python and other demanding programming languages."
"It's an outdated legacy product that doesn't meet the needs of modern data analysts and scientists."
"It is not easy to use the R language. Though I don't know if it's possible, I believe it is possible, but it is not the best language for machine learning."
"It would also be nice if there were less coding involved."
"Hive performance. If Hive performance increased, Hadoop would replace (not everywhere) traditional databases."
"The version control of the software is also an issue."
"Deleting any service requires a lot of clean up, unlike Cloudera."
"I work a lot with banking, IT and communications customers. Hortonworks must improve or must upgrade their services for these sectors."
"More information could be there to simplify the process of running the product."
"The cost of the solution is high and there is room for improvement."
"Security and workload management need improvement."
