A data platform true to the spirit of open source

What do you like best?

HDP is the closest open source platform you can get in hadoop eco system with more choice of tools than everything else. The convenience of Ambari UI and API for building, deploying and managing the cluster makes it relatively easy to get started. With Yarn and Spark you can mix different nodes for storage and compute and master nodes to manage loads.

What do you dislike?

Version upgrades are more challenging than anticipated. Each upgrade has it's own quirks and compatibility issues that need to be resolved manually.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

Building and deploying large scale Hadoop/Hive/Yarn/Spark clusters with hundreds of nodes in distributed environments on AWS.
