We performed a comparison between Apache Hadoop and SAP IQ based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Snowflake Computing, Oracle, Teradata and others in Data Warehouse."What I like about Apache Hadoop is that it's for big data, in particular big data analysis, and it's the easier solution. I like the data processing feature for AI/ML use cases the most because some solutions allow me to collect data from relational databases, while Hadoop provides me with more options for newer technologies."
"Apache Hadoop can manage large amounts and volumes of data with relative ease, which is a feature that is beneficial."
"The scalability of Apache Hadoop is very good."
"I liked that Apache Hadoop was powerful, had a lot of tools, and the fact that it was free and community-developed."
"Hadoop is extensible — it's elastic."
"We selected Apache Hadoop because it is not dependent on third-party vendors."
"The most important feature is its ability to handle large volumes. Some of our customers have really large volumes, and it is capable of handling their data in terms of the core volume and daily incremental volume. So, its processing power and speed are most valuable."
"One valuable feature is that we can download data."
"The primary benefit of SAP IQ is its ability to limit the expansion of the costly SAP HANA database, which has limited storage capacity. This necessitates a form of data management that involves moving data from SAP HANA to SAP NLS, which is essentially archiving. This allows us to retain access to the data via a link whenever it is required."
"The price could be better. I think we would use it more, but the company didn't want to pay for it. Hortonworks doesn't exist anymore, and Cloudera killed the free version of Hadoop."
"I mentioned it definitely, and this is probably the only feature we can improve a little bit because the terminal and coding screen on Hadoop is a little outdated, and it looks like the old C++ bio screen. If the UI and UX can be improved slightly, I believe it will go a long way toward increasing adoption and effectiveness."
"I think more of the solution needs to be focused around the panel processing and retrieval of data."
"What could be improved in Apache Hadoop is its user-friendliness. It's not that user-friendly, but maybe it's because I'm new to it. Sometimes it feels so tough to use, but it could be because of two aspects: one is my incompetency, for example, I don't know about all the features of Apache Hadoop, or maybe it's because of the limitations of the platform. For example, my team is maintaining the business glossary in Apache Atlas, but if you want to change any settings at the GUI level, an advanced level of coding or programming needs to be done in the back end, so it's not user-friendly."
"Real-time data processing is weak. This solution is very difficult to run and implement."
"It requires a great deal of learning curve to understand. The overall Hadoop ecosystem has a large number of sub-products. There is ZooKeeper, and there are a whole lot of other things that are connected. In many cases, their functionalities are overlapping, and for a newcomer or our clients, it is very difficult to decide which of them to buy and which of them they don't really need. They require a consulting organization for it, which is good for organizations such as ours because that's what we do, but it is not easy for the end customers to gain so much knowledge and optimally use it."
"The integration with Apache Hadoop with lots of different techniques within your business can be a challenge."
"Hadoop's security could be better."
"The solution works best when combined with other SAP solutions. If the environment has other systems other options might be better."
Apache Hadoop is ranked 6th in Data Warehouse with 8 reviews while SAP IQ is ranked 17th in Data Warehouse with 1 review. Apache Hadoop is rated 8.0, while SAP IQ is rated 7.0. The top reviewer of Apache Hadoop writes "Has good processing power and speed and is capable of handling large volumes of data and doing online analysis". On the other hand, the top reviewer of SAP IQ writes "Easy to use, highly stable, but integration could improve". Apache Hadoop is most compared with Microsoft Azure Synapse Analytics, Azure Data Factory, Snowflake, Oracle Exadata and SAP BW4HANA, whereas SAP IQ is most compared with Snowflake, SAP HANA, SQL Server, SAP Adaptive Server Enterprise and Vertica.
