    Microsoft
    Well suited: A tiny-mid sized company with no immediate plans of growing the volume of their data processing, that can afford long response times from support. Also it helps if you are not prone to put your hands on Linux and Spark configuration. In fact, it can make things go really faster if you also work with the bundle-in Jupyter. And, if you need to perform some diagnostics and / or administrative tasks, that's full of tools to find an understand the Root Cause. Ideal for non experts. Less appropriate: Big Data company, intense on demand cluster creation, mission critical, costs reduction, latest versions of libraries required, sophisticate customizations required.

    Cons
    Microsoft
    • 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.

    Cloudera
    • Not fully Open Source, couple of components of the distributions are privately owned, meaning with public contributions are not welcome
    • Improvements to Cloudera manager can only be recommended. its very hard to get it done once recommended as the full control is with them.
    • Should make components more aligned to Open Source rather than making it closed sourced.
    • Custom Features of open source software tools supported only by Cloudera are tricky. Cant commit changes to tools like Hue.
    • Improvements to Cluster Management tool is required, which are already available to its competitors.

    Cloudera
    Likely to renew the use in case the requirements for Cloudera remain valid. The rapid change in customer requirements and solutions that must be validated, integrated or tested changes. As the maturity of the solution increases, the requirements to renew use decrease. From a solution feature perspective by itself would probably grade 10.

    Support Rating
    Microsoft
    Inexpert, isolated teams... not good for support an excessively complex platform. Lots of weeks or months for a complex problem troubleshoot. Many time lost stuck on MindTree, before the case was finally escalated with Microsoft!

    At this time I have not used any other similar products... I am open to it but Azure HDInsight and its components really work well for our organization.

    Cloudera
    • Cloudera products are the most widely. It is more business friendly as data is more secure. The sensitive data that you operate on is local to you and your project rather than processing this data on Cloud.
    • Cloudera is definitely faster as wait time is reduced if on Cloud.
    • A lot range of products are covered. So it is definitely good for businesses and had good returns on investments.
