Overall Satisfaction with Hadoop

I have been using Hadoop for 2 years and I really find it very useful, especially working with bigger datasets. I have used Hadoop and Mahout for my project to analyze and learn different patterns from Yelp Dataset. It was really very easy and user friendly to use.

Pros

  • Scalability. Hadoop is really useful when you are dealing with a bigger system and you want to make your system scalable.
  • Reliable. Very reliable.
  • Fast, Fast Fast!!! Hadoop really works very fast, even with bigger datasets.

Cons

  • Development tools are not that easy to use.
  • Learning curve can be reduced. As of now, some skill is a must to use Hadoop.
  • Security. In today's world, security is of prime importance. Hadoop could be made more secure to use.
Fast and scalable. More reliable as compared to the other products I have used.
Hadoop is really useful for larger datasets. It is not very useful when you are dealing with a smaller dataset.
