HPE Data Fabric vs. Microsoft Azure IoT Hub

MapR is more well-suited for people who know what they are doing. I consider MapR the Hadoop distribution professionals use.

We are using the Azure IOT hub for solving the multitenancy problem within our research project. We are consuming data from various resources and communicating it with different devices on our hybrid cloud. We also use Azure IoT as a bridge between two business Intelligence sources which are really hard to connect devices.

• MapR had very fast I/O throughput. The write speed was several times faster than what we could achieve with the other Hadoop vendors (Cloudera and Hortonworks). This is because MapR does not use HDFS, which is essentially a "meta filesystem". HDFS is built on top of the filesystem provided by the OS. MapR has their filesystem called MapR-FS, which is a true filesystem and accesses the raw disk drives.
• The MapR filesystem is very easy to integrate with other Linux filesystems. When working with HDFS from Apache Hadoop, you usually have to use either the HDFS API or various Hadoop/HDFS command line utilities to interact with HDFS. You cannot use command line utilities native to the host operation system, which is usually Linux. At least, it is not easily done without setting up NFS, gateways, etc. With MapR-FS, you can mount the filesystem within Linux and use the standard Unix commands to manipulate files.
• The HBase distribution provided by MapR is very similar to the Apache HBase distribution. Cloudera and Hortonworks add GUIs and other various tools on top of their HBase distributions. The MapR HBase distribution is very similar to the Apache distribution, which is nice if you are more accustomed to using Apache HBase.

• It takes time to get latest versions of Apache ecosystem tools released as it has to be adapted.
• When you have issues related to Mapr-FS or Mapr Tables, its hard to figure them out by ourselves.
• Sometime new ecosystem tools versions are released without proper QA.

Azure IoT support professionals are strong, and always provide timely responses. Vast documentation and examples are available, plus a network of professionals in the market. It's very comparable to the main competitor offer, and easily integrated into the main Azure product offer. Azure IoT is not a new solution, so it is very mature and support can easily address any day to day or architectural concern you have.

I don't believe there is as much support for MapR yet compared to other more widely known products.

We require Azure integration, data security and simple development. IoT Hub ticked all those boxes.

• Increased employee efficiency for sure. Our clients have various levels of expertise in their deployment and user teams, and we never receive complaints about MapR.
• MapR is used by one of our financial services clients who uses it for fraud detection and user pattern analysis. They are able to turn around data much faster than they previously had with in-house applications

• As a student, we are using student program subscription which is cheaper than an individual or business subscription.
• Our school devices our efficiently communicating with each other which has increased the revenue of our school.
• It provides strong and robust cloud communication within the premises which also helped in increased in the school reputation.
