Find out what your peers are saying about Apache, Cloudera, Amazon Web Services (AWS) and others in Hadoop."Ranger for security; with Ranger we can manager user’s permissions/access controls very easily."
"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 upgrades and patches must come from Hortonworks."
"The data platform is pretty neat. The workflow is also really good."
"The scalability is the key reason why we are on this platform."
"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."
"We use it for data science activities."
"It is a scalable platform."
"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 would like to see more support for containers such as Docker and OpenShift."
"The version control of the software is also an issue."
"Hive performance. If Hive performance increased, Hadoop would replace (not everywhere) traditional databases."
"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."
"More information could be there to simplify the process of running the product."
"Deleting any service requires a lot of clean up, unlike Cloudera."
"It's at end of life and no longer will there be improvements."
"It would also be nice if there were less coding involved."
"The UI was not interactive: Responses used to be very slow and hang up at times."
