Apache Hadoop vs. Informatica MDM & 360 Applications

Altogether, I want to say that Apache Hadoop is well-suited to a larger and unstructured data flow like an aggregation of web traffic or even advertising. I think Apache Hadoop is great when you literally have petabytes of data that need to be stored and processed on an ongoing basis. Also, I would recommend that the software should be supplemented with a faster and interactive database for a better querying service. Lastly, it's very cost-effective so it is good to give it a shot before coming to any conclusion.

It is a robust software with great management and data model. It can be difficult to learn how to use and deploy the first time but the mapping and features work very well and have optimized our productivity and cost savings. We can customize reports, create rules and integrate with other applications. Overall I recommend it.

• Handles large amounts of unstructured data well, for business level purposes
• Is a good catchall because of this design, i.e. what does not fit into our vertical tables fits here.
• Decent for large ETL pipelines and logging free-for-alls because of this, also.

• This program raises us to a professional level where we have better versatility to control all the media of my work and have a correct response for each scenario.
• It is essential to be right about the destination and development of my data, Informatica MDM is here to simplify all these processes for its users.

• Less organizational support system. Bugs need to be fixed and outside help take a long time to push updates
• Not for small data sets
• Data security needs to be ramped up
• Failure in NameNode has no replication which takes a lot of time to recover

• It is unfortunate how this program has a couple of limitations in terms of insertions; it does not have the ability to agglomerate and archive the data in real-time by groups.
• To have automation functions, the program is very limited in performing one task at a time, compared to other systems that perform functions simultaneously.

Hadoop is organization-independent and can be used for various purposes ranging from archiving to reporting and can make use of economic, commodity hardware. There is also a lot of saving in terms of licensing costs - since most of the Hadoop ecosystem is available as open-source and is free

Supporting well in managing our huge customer base and managing the customer hierarchies well aligned with transactional processes

As Hadoop enterprise licensed version is quite fine tuned and easy to use makes it good choice for Hadoop administrators. It’s scalability and integration with Kerberos is good option for authentication and authorisation. installation can be improved. logging can be improved so that it become easier for debugging purposes. parallel processing of data is achieved easily.

Incentivized

Strong Customer MDM capabilities for de-duplication, merging, golden record, exposing customer master data. Strong Integration capabilities

It's a great value for what you pay, and most Data Base Administrators (DBAs) can walk in and use it without substantial training. I tend to dabble on the analyst side, so querying the data I need feels like it can take forever, especially on higher traffic days like Monday.

I'm not sure since I never used support. My colleagues never had any issues with it, therefore my rating would be an 8 with a certain range of uncertainty.

Hadoop is a complex topic and best suited for classrom training. Online training are a waste of time and money.

The integrator did a fair job and even though Business Change Management was complex, it was well concluded on time

Not used any other product than Hadoop and I don't think our company will switch to any other product, as Hadoop is providing excellent results. Our company is growing rapidly, Hadoop helps to keep up our performance and meet customer expectations. We also use HDFS which provides very high bandwidth to support MapReduce workloads.

Informatica MDM has proven it's worth in the organization by driving the revenue growth. It saves our lot of time by filtering out duplicate values and helps in solving critical business problems. It is very helpful when we deal with a lot of data. Apart from this we can populate data on various third party integration which is most useful case

• There are many advantages of Hadoop as first it has made the management and processing of extremely colossal data very easy and has simplified the lives of so many people including me.
• Hadoop is quite interesting due to its new and improved features plus innovative functions.

• I cannot speak to this for 2 reasons. 1. I am not privy to the financials associated with this implementation or the previous one. 2. We have not hit our 'go-live' for this implementation yet to compare it's performance to our previous solution.
