Find out in this report how the two Cloud Data Warehouse solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The project management is very streamlined."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"The ability to resize the cluster is what really makes it stand out over other Hadoop and big data solutions."
"It has a variety of options and support systems."
"This is the best tool for hosts and it's really flexible and scalable."
"In Amazon EMR it is easy to rebuild anything, easy to upgrade and has good fault tolerance."
"When we grade big jobs from on-prem to the cloud, we do it in EMR with Spark."
"Amazon EMR's most valuable features are processing speed and data storage capacity."
"Tanzu Greenplum's most valuable features include the integration of modern data science approaches across an MPP platform."
"After creating a RabbitMQ service, they provide you with a sort of web management dashboard."
"The solution improved our site reliability."
"The loading speed is very good."
"The stability of this solution was very good."
"It's one of the fastest databases in the market. It's easy to use. From a maintenance perspective it's a good product. The segmentation, or architecture of the product is different than other databases such as Oracle. So even in 10 years, the data distribution for such segments will not affect other segments. The query performance of the product, for complex queries, is very good. It has good integration with Hadoop."
"The solution's best feature is its exceptional speed, delivering efficient utilization of resources."
"It can be configured to be a very fast message broker. I like the stability, the built-in admin tools and plugin architecture."
"The legacy versions of the solution are not supported in the new versions."
"We don't have much control. If we have multiple users, if they want to scale up, the cost will go and increase and we don't know how we can restrict that price part."
"The initial setup was time-consuming."
"There were times where they would release new versions and it seemed to end up breaking old versions, which is very strange."
"As people are shifting from legacy solutions to other technologies, Amazon EMR needs to add more features that give more flexibility in managing user data."
"The dashboard management could be better. Right now, it's lacking a bit."
"The problem for us is it starts very slow."
"There is no need to pay extra for third-party software."
"If messages pile up until the space of the memory is full, then basically, the cluster goes down, and someone has to log in through the backend and purge all messages."
"The solution needs improvement on performance."
"We needed to configure additional plugins. While it was relatively easy to do this on-premises, it became more challenging in the cloud."
"Tanzu Greenplum's compression for GPText could be made more efficient."
"Lacks sufficient inbuilt machine-learning functions for complex use cases."
"I was struggling with installing a few things. It would be good if was somewhat similar to RedHat. There should be more documentation regarding installation troubleshooting."
"The next release should include some of the flexibility and features that Kafka offers."
"they need to interact more with customers. They need to explain the features, especially when there are new releases of Greenplum. I know just from information I've found that it has other features, it can be used to for analytics, for integration with Big Data, Hadoop. They need to focus on this part with the customer."
