Advanced user of Azure Data Lake AnalyticsAzure data lake is one of best tool for bigdata processing and most importantly it works only for batch workloads that makes it simple.
However storage of relational database and NoSQL are provided complimentarily.
Lack of streaming option and event processing workloads. however some addons can be associated with azure data lake such as azure data bricks or HDInsight which can help in streaming and event processing workloads.
If someone is looking for a simple tool to process big data they can blindly go with azure as you can only focus on the process instead finding other services like storage etc.. with another provider.
Azure data lake analytics is clean and has much more features that will help you finish your process with less time frame.
We used Azure data lake analytics to study customer service over multiple channels including email, texts, voice call etc.. the goal was to analyze the data sets from various sources. The simple user interface makes the azure data lake analytics a reliable and easy to use program which can be used efficiently even by users at the beginning stage.
