Cloudera Data Platform vs RStudio

Likelihood to Recommend

I have seen that Cloudera Data Platform is well suited for large batch processes. It works really well for our indication analyses that are performed by the actuaries. I feel that rapid streaming operations may be a situation where additional technology would be needed to provide for a robust solution.

For coding in R[Studio], there is no other tool I could recommend more highly. Between the work put into the RStudio application itself and the deep integration of RStudio built packages, no other environment comes close to being as useful.

1: RStudio is a great tool for organizing your R code - coding, executing and seeing the results on the same page!
2: RStudio (and R in general) is great because it is an open source tool! So it receives new packages and updates constantly. It's also one of the most used analytics tools, so you are likely to find all of the models you need here!
3: Did I mention it is free? This is great if your IT department (or company) has budget constraints.

As a scripting language, it is not a pick up and go platform. You need to spend the time to learning the program.
Platform versions and Package versions often do not align.
Would love to see standard templates that would generate a basic code for statistical models. This could save time and help newer users learn how to operate the program.

RStudio 9.1

Based on 2 answers

Rstudio is my go - to language for anything involving analysis. It has far more capabilities for data analysis than Python (in my opinion). New packages for novel analytical techniques are often published. Rstudio continues to implement great updates every few months as well. Finally, I really like that I can write LateX documents in Rstudio and integrate R code into them.

I think it's a quick and easy to use tool. The IDE is very intuitive and easy to adapt to. You do not need to learn a lot of things to use this tool. Any programmer and a person with knowledge or R can quick use this tool without issues.

Alternatives Considered

IBM's offering of the Cloud Pak for Data has been a moving target and difficult to compare to Cloudera Data Platform. We have implemented our solution on Amazon Web Services, which appears to be supported by IBM at this point, but the migration would be very expensive for us to endeavor.

Compared to Power BI, it is easier to create custom analysis and visualizations in RStudio. In terms of enterprise integration, it seems so far that Power BI is easier because of its tighter integration with our Microsoft suite of tools and services.

RStudio is open-source and free. Any organisations would love to use it as long as it can meet their objectives.
RStudio community is growing with each passing year. If it's promoted by the organisation and training and other support can be offered to tempt analysts to switch to RTStudio, huge costs savings can be made in the future.
