Chose Azure HDInsight
Azure HD Insight is the one only used and it works well and serves its purpose. Azure Blob Storage could be an alternative, but if you really want to work on a large-scale workload, then HD analytics is best with Azure Data Lakes. PowerBI could be useful for small scale data …

If you want to save costs and just pay for what you use, I highly recommend it. It will help you also to work with data for your reports and analytics. on the other hand I think it could be the subscription you have but high volume of data make it slow but not so much. anyway I think it's really good because it's from Microsoft which always is friendly to use it as all the suit they have.

Cons

  • The only problem I have come across is when loading large volumes of data I sometimes get an error message, I assume this means something is corrupt from within. I would love a way for this to be resolved without having to start over.

Azure HDInsight is usable on the top of Azure Data Lake and gives us the benefit of analyzing large scale data workload in Hadoop. Usability and support from Microsoft are outstanding.
