Read full review Jobs with Spark, Hadoop, or Hive queries are rapidly attained Can collect, organize and analyze your data accurately You can customize, for example, Spark or Hadoop configuration settings, or Python, R, Scala, or Java libraries. Read full review Cons 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. Read full review Easier pricing and plug-and-play like you see with AWS and Azure, it would be nice from a budgeting and billing standpoint, as well as better support for the administration. Bundling of the Cloud Object Storage should be included with the Analytics Engine. The inability to add your own Hadoop stack components has made some transfers a little more complex. Read full review Likelihood to Renew 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.

Read full review We initially wanted to go with
Google BigQuery , mainly for the name recognition. However, the pricing and support structure led us to seek alternatives, which pointed us to IBM.
Apache Spark was also in the running, but here IBM's domination in the industry made the choice a no-brainer. As previously stated, the support received was not quite what we expected, but was adequate.

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.
