Apache Hive vs. Devart Excel Add-ins

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.

Devart Excel Add-ins is really good for data comparison of one database table against another database table. There are plenty of times where the business users need help understanding with their Power BI data models are not connecting correctly and I use this tool to break down the differences between the tables they are trying to connect.

• 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.

• Devart Excel Add-in supports connectivity with various databases - which really helps to customize and massage data.
• Since data is available in cloud, it is easily accessible everywhere.
• It can also be integrated with SSIS components making it possible to resolve complex problems.

• 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

Incentivized

• The data pump feature breaks sometimes
• The profile usage monitoring is slow
• The event profiler is delayed

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

Devart Excel stacks up very well against its alternatives. It has significant advantages as it keeps getting an update. Features are very much suitable for smaller organizations. For larger organizations the features cannot be used directly because of the size of the company and more native requirements of IT software requirements.

• 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.

Incentivized

• The data compare option saves our dev team a lot of time
• The documenter feature is nice to use for explaining table definitions
• The event profiler is great for usage metrics
