Helps with data management and has good scalability
What is our primary use case?
What needs improvement?
Hortonworks Data Platform has a limited user community. I haven't seen much discussion about user experiences. More information could be there to simplify the process of running the product.
For how long have I used the solution?
We have been using Hortonworks Data Platform for a couple of months.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I rate the product's stability an eight out of ten.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
We have five Hortonworks Data Platform users in our organization. It is a scalable platform.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup could be more straightforward. It would help if you are technically inclined to follow the necessary steps. There could be easy ways to set it up. It takes 45 minutes to complete and requires a team of five people to execute the process.
What about the implementation team?
We implement the product in-house.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
Currently, we are using the product in a sandbox environment, and there is no licensing. We might choose a licensing option once we get the results.
What other advice do I have?
I recommend Hortonworks Data Platform to others and rate it an eight out of ten.
Dropped the ball and company is in disarray
Upgrades and patching are addressed by the solution, and they offer a sandbox for testing
What is our primary use case?
There are a lot of use cases for the Hortonworks Data Platform. We use it alongside GPFS, so most of the information we use for operational analytics is primarily on the Hortonworks Data Platform.
What is most valuable?
The upgrades and patches must come from Hortonworks. Therefore, if we encounter any problems, they will be responsible for addressing them. This is one of the instances where we have to rely on them for all the upgrades.
What needs improvement?
The cost of the solution is high and there is room for improvement.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using the Hortonworks Data Platform for two years.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Hortonworks Data Platform is scalable, but it lacks the capability for horizontal scaling. Therefore, we need to add more servers to increase its capacity.
How was the initial setup?
I am responsible for setting up the infrastructure, but I don't handle the engineering work.
What other advice do I have?
I would rate Hortonworks Data Platform an eight out of ten. The solution delivers on its promises, and Hortonworks provides a sandbox for testing before making a purchase.
The maintenance requires a lot of people, including the DRE and IRE teams.
It is not practical for most organizations that lack large amounts of resources to maintain their own data platform. The Hortonworks Data Platform makes it easier for such organizations.
Very robust and scalable application
My experience with cloudera is good
Excelent
The most comprehensive big data stack

WSO2 API Manager integration with Cloudera
The main advantages of using Cloudera are scalability and centralized administration, which greatly facilitates the work of monitoring and necessary corrections.
As the main thing, I still consider the cost, although I believe it is fair, but it ends up being unfeasible for smaller projects.
The data is sent via WSO2 to Kafka, and then with NIFI, the processing is done to save the raw and summarized data in HIVE and force an index in solr to be consumed later by the WSO2 API Manager.
