Hadoop is an open source software from Apache, supporting distributed processing and data storage. Hadoop is popular for its scalability, reliability, and functionality available across commoditized hardware.

Databricks in San Francisco offers the Databricks Lakehouse Platform (formerly the Unified Analytics Platform), a data science platform and Apache Spark cluster manager. The Databricks Unified Data Service aims to provide a reliable and scalable platform for data pipelines, data lakes, and data platforms. Users can manage full data journey, to ingest, process, store, and expose data throughout an organization. Its Data Science Workspace is a collaborative environment for practitioners to run…
Apache Hadoop (and its subsequent add-ons) are well-suited to larger, unstructured data flows, such as aggregation of web traffic or advertising. Geospatial algorithms and their outputs are well-suited for this kind of aggregation as structuring that data is challenging, but leaving it unstructured and performing queries as-needed is a better fit for most business models. With the advent of data science, I would expect Hadoop fits a LOT of their initial outputs quite well.
If you need a managed big data megastore, which has native integration with highly optimized Apache Spark Engine and native integration with MLflow, go for Databricks Lakehouse Platform. The Databricks Lakehouse Platform is a breeze to use and analytics capabilities are supported out of the box. You will find it a bit difficult to manage code in notebooks but you will get used to it soon.
There is databricks community, which is a free version. It is available for beginners to have an easy start with a big data platform. It does not have every feature of the full version but is still adequate for extremely new coders.
There are many resourceful training elements that are available to developers, data scientists, data engineers and other IT professionals to learn Apache Spark.
Hadoop is a batch oriented processing framework, it lacks real time or stream processing.
Hadoop's HDFS file system is not a POSIX compliant file system and does not work well with small files, especially smaller than the default block size.
Hadoop cannot be used for running interactive jobs or analytics.
Connect my local code in Visual code to my Databricks Lakehouse Platform cluster so I can run the code on the cluster. The old databricks-connect approach has many bugs and is hard to set up. The new Databricks Lakehouse Platform extension on Visual Code, doesn't allow the developers to debug their code line by line (only we can run the code).
Maybe have a specific Databricks Lakehouse Platform IDE that can be used by Databricks Lakehouse Platform users to develop locally.
Visualization in MLFLOW experiment can be enhanced
Hadoop is organization-independent and can be used for various purposes ranging from archiving to reporting and can make use of economic, commodity hardware. There is also a lot of saving in terms of licensing costs - since most of the Hadoop ecosystem is available as open-source and is free
Great! Hadoop has an easy to use interface that mimics most other data warehouses. You can access your data via SQL and have it display in a terminal before exporting it to your business intelligence platform of choice. Of course, for smaller data sets, you can also export it to Microsoft Excel.
Because it is an amazing platform for designing experiments and delivering a deep dive analysis that requires execution of highly complex queries, as well as it allows to share the information and insights across the company with their shared workspaces, while keeping it secured.
in terms of graph generation and interaction it could improve their UI and UX
We went with a third party for support, i.e., consultant. Had we gone with Azure or Cloudera, we would have obtained support directly from the vendor. my rating is more on the third party we selected and doesn't reflect the overall support available for Hadoop. I think we could have done better in our selection process, however, we were trying to use an already approved vendor within our organization. There is plenty of self-help available for Hadoop online.
One of the best customer and technology support that I have ever experienced in my career. You pay for what you get and you get the Rolls Royce. It reminds me of the customer support of SAS in the 2000s when the tools were reaching some limits and their engineer wanted to know more about what we were doing, long before "data science" was even a name. Databricks truly embraces the partnership with their customer and help them on any given challenge.
I feel that this is a highly reliable and scalable solution computing technology that is highly capable of processing large data sets across multiple servers and thousands of machines in a well-defined and distributed manner. Apache Hadoop can automatically scale up the number of servers and machines that are needed to process, store, and analyze data sets. It also handles explosions in data with big data technology. Apache Hadoop is good at handling all node failures as well.
Databricks is a true all-in-one platform, and at the time of implementation, it had more features available to us, making it a clear choice over Snowflake. Moving our workloads from local computing to the servers in Databricks gave our start-up staff a great quality of life boost.
As it was open source makes it popular choice for handling large chuck of datasets
It was free earlier but now it’s licensed but still enterprise is a fine tuned version which makes it easier for new users and administrators to use it
Our investment is worth every single penny.
Initial cost is more as you might need to hire administrators to setup the cluster and make them in scalable. But once done it’s pretty easy
