Overall Satisfaction with Amazon EMR (Elastic MapReduce)
We use Amazon EMR (Elastic MapReduce) to run various types of algorithms related to health like calculation of body mass index, heart rate and similar parameters on vast amounts of data. We do this for developing a prototype of a health analysis device that users can wear on their body - something like a smart watch fitness tracker.

- Reduced processing times

- It was expensive at the start when the scale was small
- It started showing good ROI when the amount of data increased

1. Amazon EMR was faster than Google BigQuery and this made a difference when the amount of data was really large.
2. Amazon EMR was costlier than Google BigQuery so it was difficult to manage budget.
3. Amazon EMR has excellent integrations with other technologies.
Speed, and integrations were more important than cost so Amazon EMR was the winner.
