We performed a comparison between Cloudera Distribution for Hadoop and HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Hadoop solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
"It is helpful to gather and process data."
"We experienced many issues when we started working with Hadoop 3.0 in the Cloudera 6.0 version, so there are a lot of things that need to improve. I believe they are working on that."
"The features I find most valuable is that the solution is that it is easy to install and to work with. It starts with the installation and from there on the management is very simple and centralized."
"The file system is a valuable feature."
"In terms of scalability, if you have enough hardware you can scale out. Scalability doesn't have any issues."
"Customer service and support were able to fix whatever the issue was."
"I don't see any performance issues."
"It has the best proxy, security, and support features compared to open-source products."
"My customers find the product cheaper compared to other solutions. The previous solution that we used did not have unified analytics like the runtime or the analog."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"I like the administration part."
"HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric can be accessed from any namespace globally as you would access it from a machine using an NFS."
"The model creation was very interesting, especially with the libraries provided by the platform."
"Cloudera's support is extremely bad and cannot be relied on."
"The areas of improvement depend on the scale of the project. For banking customers, security features and an essential budget for commercial licenses would be the top priority. Data regulation could be the most crucial for a project with extensive data or an extra use case."
"The procedure for operations could be simplified."
"This is a very expensive solution."
"The pricing needs to improve."
"It would be useful if Cloudera had more tools like SQL Engines that offer the traditional relational database. We have to do a lot of work preparing the data outside Cloudera before getting it into the platform."
"The security of this solution could be improved. There should also be a way to basically have a blockchain enabled storage with the HDFS."
"The user infrastructure and user interface needs to be improved, as well as the performance. The GUI needs to be better."
"The deployment could be faster. I want more support for the data lake in the next release."
"The product is not user-friendly."
"Upgrading Ezmeral to a new version is a pain. They're trying to make the solution more container-friendly, so I think they're going in the right direction. The only problem we've had in the past was the upgrades. The process isn't smooth due to how the Red Hat operating system upgrades currently work."
"Having the ability to extend the services provided by the platform to an API architecture, a micro-services architecture, could be very helpful."
"HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric is not compatible with third-party tools."
