Apache Hive vs. HCL Actian Data Platform

Software work execution is on a large scale, it is good to use for new projects or organizational changes, data lineage mapping has always been dubious but this one has had good results. You can store and synchronize data from different departments, the storage process can be manual but it is best automated.

This is a tool geared for smaller to mid-sized business that has disparate sources of data from different platforms in varying incarnations. It’s a great ETL tool to solve the problems a scenario like that causes, but you can also achieve that with good BI Tools like Qlik Sense. So be careful that you really need an ETL tool, as opposed to an end-use tool with a built-in ETL component. If you are going ELT and have a lot of data an not a lot of corporate resources, this is a better option than Microsoft or Informatica

• Apache Hive allows use to write expressive solutions to complex problems thanks to its SQL-like syntax.
• Relatively easy to set up and start using.
• Very little ramp-up to start using the actual product, documentation is very thorough, there is an active community, and the code base is constantly being improved.

• Quick response for queries involving multi-million rows
• Low cost

• Some queries, particularly complex joins, are still quite slow and can take hours
• Previous jobs and queries are not stored sometimes
• Switching to Impala can sometimes be time-consuming (i.e. the system hangs, or is slow to respond).
• Sometimes, directories and tables don't load properly which causes confusion

• As I said before, more training or greater visibility to training tools/options would be a plus. It’s easy to publish YouTube videos these days, I think they should make more of them.
• Differentiation would help, there’s not a lot out there to drive you to buy the product if you are well informed in the market. If you know the market, you steer towards the large or trendy products. It’s a good product, but lost in the noise of the field I think.
• Hitching the wagon to a major software brand (like Mule did to Salesforce) would help grow the user base, and thus increase the activity in the support community. More users also translates into product champions.

Since I do not know the second data warehouse solution that integrate with HDFS as well as Hive.

Hive is a very good big data analysis and ad-hoc query platform, which supports scaling also. The BI processes can be easily integrated with Hadoop via the Hive. It can deal with a much larger data set that traditional RDBMS can not. It is a "must-have" component of the big data domain.

Apache Hive is a FOSS project and its open source. We need not definitely comment on anything about the support of open source and its developer community. But, it has got tremendous developer support, awesome documentation. I would justify the fact that much support can be gathered from the community backup.

Besides Hive, I have used Google BigQuery, which is costly but have very high computation speed. Amazon Redshift is the another product, I used in my recent organisation. Both Redshift and BigQuery are managed solution whereas Hive needs to be managed

• Apache hive is secured and scalable solution that helps in increasing the overall organization productivity.
• Apache hive can handle and process large amount of data in a sufficient time manner.
• It simplifies writing SQL queries, hence helping the organization as most companies use SQL for all query jobs.

• We had to move out of VectorWise after using the database for 2 years. Hence no positive impacts.
