We performed a comparison between Hortonworks Data Platform and IBM InfoSphere BigInsights [EOL] based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Apache, Cloudera, Amazon Web Services (AWS) and others in Hadoop."The data platform is pretty neat. The workflow is also really good."
"It is a scalable platform."
"Ambari Web UI: user-friendly."
"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 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."
"The scalability is the key reason why we are on this platform."
"Distributed computing, secure containerization, and governance capabilities are the most valuable features."
"InfoSphere Streams was the one core product from the platform in which we were using. We were building a real-time response system and we built it on InfoSphere Streams."
"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."
"The version control of the software is also an issue."
"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."
"It's at end of life and no longer will there be improvements."
"Deleting any service requires a lot of clean up, unlike Cloudera."
"Security and workload management need improvement."
"The UI was not interactive: Responses used to be very slow and hang up at times."
