Apache Hive vs. Cloudera Data Platform

Apache Hive shines for ad-hoc analysis and plugging into BI tools. Its SQL-like syntax allows for ease of use not for only for engineers but also for data analysts. Through our experience, there are probably more desirable tools to use if you are planning on integrating Hive into your processing pipeline.

I have seen that Cloudera Data Platform is well suited for large batch processes. It works really well for our indication analyses that are performed by the actuaries. I feel that rapid streaming operations may be a situation where additional technology would be needed to provide for a robust solution.

• Hive syntax is almost like SQL, so for someone already familiar with SQL it takes almost no effort to pick up Hive.
• To be able to run map reduce jobs using json parsing and generate dynamic partitions in parquet file format.
• Simplifies your experience with Hadoop especially for non-technical/coding partners.

• Scales
• Highly available

• Use Hive for analytical work loads. Write once and read many scenarios. Do not prefer updates and deletes.
• Behind scenes Hive creates map reduce jobs. Hive performance is slow compared to Apache Spark.
• Map reduce writes the intermediate outputs to dial whereas Spark operates in in-memory and uses DAG.

• Constantly changing costs
• Log visibility

Since I do not know the second data warehouse solution that integrate with HDFS as well as Hive.

Hive is a very good big data analysis and ad-hoc query platform, which supports scaling also. The BI processes can be easily integrated with Hadoop via the Hive. It can deal with a much larger data set that traditional RDBMS can not. It is a "must-have" component of the big data domain.

Apache Hive is a FOSS project and its open source. We need not definitely comment on anything about the support of open source and its developer community. But, it has got tremendous developer support, awesome documentation. I would justify the fact that much support can be gathered from the community backup.

We have utilized Cloudera support quite frequently and are very satisfied with the capability and responsiveness of that team. Often, the new features delivered with the platform give us an opportunity to mature the way we're doing things, and the support team have been valuable in developing those new patterns.

We have used a simple but necessary function such as merging certain data tables, which although they may be from different areas, complement each other or are necessary, you can use metadata if what you need is to validate the origin of your information and what impact it has, is also feasible.

IBM's offering of the Cloud Pak for Data has been a moving target and difficult to compare to Cloudera Data Platform. We have implemented our solution on Amazon Web Services, which appears to be supported by IBM at this point, but the migration would be very expensive for us to endeavor.

• Good ROI for being able to access data easily across the network, we have large amounts of data and this is a good system to access it
• Good ROI for being easy to learn how to use for new employees, not much time spent which saves costs
• Good ROI for being able to integrate with Spark and other applications, hence data can be analyzed through programs

• Reduced operational costs
• Speed to market
