Overall Satisfaction with Amazon EMR (Elastic MapReduce)

To keep my review simple it is very convenient that AWS has a MapReduce tool as it was easy to deploy and test with our cloud setup. Also with AWS being well known it is easy to find staff who can use and set up a system and scale our solutions. Definitely an industry leader.
  • Scalable
  • Flexible
  • Good documentation
  • Cost effective
  • Integration with ERP for SMEs.
  • To connect to non cloud solutions and replicate data for backup.
  • Better performance metrics for business people such as cost benefits.
  • Elasticity
  • Reliability
  • Security
  • Flexibility
  • ROE is slower for small business
  • Less in house resources to manage
  • We can focus more on the business
Apache Hadoop required us to do all the leg work and we did not have the resources for that. It was ideal that AWS offers a MapReduce solution as we use it to host various servers. It is one place for all our needs. Very convenient. Apache Hadoop is still a good product but for us, at the moment we are an AWS shop.

When I need to process large data and meaningful information. But it is very flexible where I can scale based on the data size and how I want to analyze it. But still can improve for nontechnical users as there is some jargon to learn to get the most out of the solution.
