Apache HBase vs. ArangoDB

Hbase is well suited for large organizations with millions of operations performing on tables, real-time lookup of records in a table, range queries, random reads and writes and online analytics operations. Hbase cannot be replaced for traditional databases as it cannot support all the features, CPU and memory intensive. Observed increased latency when using with MapReduce job joins.

Use cases provided by default are good and can be improve better using Machine Learning and AI. AQL query language is very simple and efficient in use if anyone using SQL can quickly learn AQL Language.

Developers can easily map the database and can access various patterns like search, ranking.

JSON and semantic search is the latest and next-generation technology to implement to access and extract large datasets.

• Scalability. HBase can scale to trillions of records.
• Fast. HBase is extremely fast to scan values or retrieve individual records by key.
• HBase can be accessed by standard SQL via Apache Phoenix.
• Integrated. I can easily store and retrieve data from HBase using Apache Spark.
• It is easy to set up DR and backups.
• Ingest. It is easy to ingest data into HBase via shell, Java, Apache NiFi, Storm, Spark, Flink, Python and other means.

Incentivized

• AQL query language is big plus for ArangoDB
• It can be implemented cloud as well as on-prem
• Search Engine is a very good option for ArangoDB

• There are very few commands in HBase.
• Stored procedures functionality is not available so it should be implemented.
• HBase is CPU and Memory intensive with large sequential input or output access while as Map Reduce jobs are primarily input or output bound with fixed memory. HBase integrated with Map-reduce jobs will result in random latencies.

• By providing the free services for few months will be help understand for beginners
• Enhancing features in dashboard and can make UI more user-friendly
• Should conduct more surveys and adv to improve scalability

There's really not anything else out there that I've seen comparable for my use cases. HBase has never proven me wrong. Some companies align their whole business on HBase and are moving all of their infrastructure from other database engines to HBase. It's also open source and has a very collaborative community.

Cassandra os great for writes. But with large datasets, depending, not as great as HBASE. Cassandra does support parquet now. HBase still performance issues. Cassandra has use cases of being used as time series. HBase, it fails miserably. GeoSpatial data, Hbase does work to an extent. HA between the two are almost the same.

It uses AQL query Language, which is different from other Databases. It has flexibility to integrate in cloud, on-prem anywhere

• As Hbase is a noSql database, here we don't have transaction support and we cannot do many operations on the data.
• Not having the feature of primary or a composite primary key is an issue as the architecture to be defined cannot be the same legacy type. Also the transaction concept is not applicable here.
• The way data is printed on console is not so user-friendly. So we had to use some abstraction over HBase (eg apache phoenix) which means there is one new component to handle.

• It is very powerful tool and should adv more to improve sales
• Should conduct more free trails and trainings
• Open source and runs everywhere
