Amazon EMR vs SAP NetWeaver Business Warehouse comparison

"The solution is pretty simple to set up."

"The project management is very streamlined."

"One of the valuable features about this solution is that it's managed services, so it's pretty stable, and scalable as much as you wish. It has all the necessary distributions. With some additional work, it's also possible to change to a Spark version with the latest version of EMR. It also has Hudi, so we are leveraging Apache Hudi on EMR for change data capture, so then it comes out-of-the-box in EMR."

"I rate Amazon EMR as ten out of ten."

"The security of the managed workflow and the managed services are the best features for us. Since we inherited their security model and it's all managed services, those are the key benefits for our clients."

"Amazon EMR is a good solution that can be used to manage big data."

"It has a variety of options and support systems."

"Amazon EMR's most valuable features are processing speed and data storage capacity."

"It is a robust system."

"Transformation is a valuable feature of SAP NetWeaver. I can transform the data as per my needs or my client's needs. For example, flat tables can be transformed with respect to our requirements to combine multiple modules into one single table, and we can derive analytics."

"A robust and efficient product."

"Data modeling is a valuable feature."

"The security and audit procedures are the most valuable features."

"It's an excellent over-all tool for managers to analyze their business."

"It provides us with proof of data, we can centralize all of the information, check it, and then provide the information to our users."

"The product must add some of the latest technologies to provide more flexibility to the users."

"Amazon EMR is continuously improving, but maybe something like CI/CD out-of-the-box or integration with Prometheus Grafana."

"Spark jobs take longer on Amazon EMR compared to previous experiences."

"The most complicated thing is configuring to the cluster and ensure it's running correctly."

"The product's features for storing data in static clusters could be better."

"The solution can become expensive if you are not careful."

"Modules and strategies should be better handled and notified early in advance."

"The problem for us is it starts very slow."

"There are performance issues in terms of scalability and availability."

"Design and modeling could be simplified."

"I think more integration with other applications would be perfect."

"Connectors are complex, and it is difficult to understand or know which connector should be used. For instance, if I want to connect APIs, I will not be able to do it directly. I would have to go to the portal integration to get the data. Therefore, having simplified connectors will make things much easier."

"It is difficult when your native language is not English. It is difficult for us to explain our issue and also difficult for the technical team to explain a resolution to us."

"The program is difficult to learn to use"

"The product could provide more features."

"I rate the tool's pricing a five out of ten. It can be expensive since it's a managed service, and if you are not careful, you can run into unexpected charges. You can make a mistake that costs you tens of thousands of dollars. That's happened to us twice, so I'm sensitive to it. We're still trying to work on that. Our smallest client probably spends a hundred thousand dollars yearly on licensing, while our largest is well over a million."

"The price of the solution is expensive."

"There is no need to pay extra for third-party software."

"There is a small fee for the EMR system, but major cost components are the underlying infrastructure resources which we actually use."

"The cost of Amazon EMR is very high."

"Amazon EMR's price is reasonable."

"The product is not cheap, but it is not expensive."

"Amazon EMR is not very expensive."

"Pricing is based on the number of user IDs and tyhe user ID works across a suite of products."

"The licensing cost is high for SAP NetWeaver compared to that for other products."

"All SAP products are expensive."
