Overview:

The open source project Apache Hadoop has emerged as the best known implementation of MapReduce, a programming model that has emerged as a solution to the analytics and storage challenges of "big data—" the massive amounts of multi-source, often unstructured data plaguing today's organizations.

However, because Hadoop was not originally intended for enterprise use, it is not without its challenges when implemented as an enterprise analytics platform.

Read this white paper to discover a big data analytics platform alternative that addresses the shortcomings of Hadoop by providing:

• Smarter workload scheduling


• Superior reliability


• Simplified management 


• Improved scalability


• And more.
