Find out what your peers are saying about Cloudera, Apache, Amazon and others in Hadoop."The product offers a fairly easy setup process."
"We use it for data science activities."
"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."
"The scalability is the key reason why we are on this platform."
"Distributed computing, secure containerization, and governance capabilities are the most valuable features."
"Hortonworks should not be expensive at all to those looking into using it."
"It is a scalable platform."
"Ambari Web UI: user-friendly."
"Data compression. It was relatively impressive. I think at some point we were getting 4:1 compression if not more."
"The performance of the solution is its most valuable feature. The solution is easy to administer as well. It's very user-friendly. On the technical side, the architecture is simple to understand and you don't need too many administrators to handle the solution."
"It is a back end for our SSIS, MicroStrategy,, Tableau. All of these are connecting to get the data. To do so we are also using our analytics which is built on the data."
"The need for administration involvement is quite limited on the solution."
"The most valuable feature is the performance."
"Speed contributes to large capacity."
"For me, as an end-user, everything that I do on the solution is simple, clear, and understandable."
"Security and workload management need improvement."
"The cost of the solution is high and there is room for improvement."
"More information could be there to simplify the process of running the product."
"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."
"Since Cloudera acquired HDP, it's been bundled with CBH and HDP. However, the biggest challenge is cloud storage integration with Azure, GCP, and AWS."
"It would also be nice if there were less coding involved."
"I would like to see more support for containers such as Docker and OpenShift."
"The solution could implement more reporting tools and networking utilities."
"The hardware has a risk of failure. They need to improve this."
"Administration of this product is too tough. It's very complex because of the tools which it's missing."
"I'm not sure of IBM's roadmap currently, as the solution is coming up on its end of life."
"In-DB processing with SAS Analytics, since this is supposed to be an analytics server so the expectation is there."
"Disaster recovery support. Because it was an appliance, and if you wanted to support disaster recovery, you needed to buy two."
"The most valuable features of this solution are robustness and support."
"The Analytics feature should be simplified."
