Find out in this report how the two Hadoop solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."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."
"It is helpful to gather and process data."
"The file system is a valuable feature."
"The solution is stable."
"We also really like the Cloudera community. You can have any question and will have your answer within a few hours."
"Customer service and support were able to fix whatever the issue was."
"The data science aspect of the solution is valuable."
"We're now able to store large volumes of data through Cloudera Distribution for Hadoop. We're able to push large volumes of data to the platform, and that used to be a challenge, especially when storing a terabyte of information. This is the area where Cloudera Distribution for Hadoop improved the organization."
"It is a back end for our SSIS, MicroStrategy,, Tableau. All of these are connecting to get the data. To do so we are also using our analytics which is built on the data."
"The need for administration involvement is quite limited on the solution."
"Speed contributes to large capacity."
"The performance of the solution is its most valuable feature. The solution is easy to administer as well. It's very user-friendly. On the technical side, the architecture is simple to understand and you don't need too many administrators to handle the solution."
"The most valuable feature is the performance."
"Data compression. It was relatively impressive. I think at some point we were getting 4:1 compression if not more."
"For me, as an end-user, everything that I do on the solution is simple, clear, and understandable."
"Cloudera's support is extremely bad and cannot be relied on."
"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 dashboard could be improved."
"The solution is not fit for on-premise distributions."
"There are better solutions out there that have more features than this one."
"The procedure for operations could be simplified."
"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."
"They should focus on upgrading their technical capabilities in the market."
"I'm not sure of IBM's roadmap currently, as the solution is coming up on its end of life."
"The hardware has a risk of failure. They need to improve this."
"The Analytics feature should be simplified."
"Administration of this product is too tough. It's very complex because of the tools which it's missing."
"In-DB processing with SAS Analytics, since this is supposed to be an analytics server so the expectation is there."
