Cloudera Manager
It would be suited for customers who feel more comfortable with using a GUI. It is less appropriate for developers or engineers who are comfortable with command line

D2iQ Mesosphere
Mesosphere is well suited for orchestrating workloads. It supports Docker as a container as well as support others. It is highly suitable for running resilient and auto recovering big data/application containers. Mesosphere has proven time and again to be production ready at a massive scale. It supports native single button/API call scale up and scale down and supports various deployment patterns like Blue-Green and others.

Cloudera Manager
- Cloudera Manager needs to be more agile with integrating other applications, such as Accumulo 1.7, to their software.
- Cloudera Manager can do a better job at explaining why a node fails to add to a cluster using their assistant.
- Cloudera Manager should show graphs only when there is data, instead of showing just an empty box.

D2iQ Mesosphere
- Setting up is a bit of a hassle, especially ZooKeeper state management and mesos and marathon quorum.
- Occasionally, I observed some failures when deploying something onto Marathon. Logging or detailed error reporting can help.
- Stale containers and inconsistent states resultant of the cluster failure are hard to solve and need a complete system restart to get it back to normal state.

Cloudera Manager
I have not used any competitors, such as Hortonworks, because Cloudera Manager just works and meets all my customer's needs. I only have deployed Hadoop using command line, which is not easy to use and manage.

D2iQ Mesosphere
I happen to like mesosphere because it integrates well with a Jenkins based workflow, Deis is a little more Heroku like and it's not clear how to fit that model into a continuous-integration process. Kubernetes has also been criticized for being complicated.

D2iQ Mesosphere
- I see mesosphere as having a positive impact overall on the industry trending Docker and containers in general.
- Seeing how mesosphere helps and simplifies things for the developer and ops, it is definitely a game changer.
- Native support of on demand scaling up and down as per the need is one of the best features.
