Spark fragmentation undermines community

The Hadoop distribution war comes down to a final battle between #Cloudera ’s CDH and #Hortonworks’ HDP. That wasn’t always the case.

At the peak of the market’s fragmentation, many companies offered Hadoop distributions in one form or another. These included #Amazon ( #AWS ), Cloudera, #Hortonworks, #IBM, #MapR, #Pivotal, #Teradata, #Intel and #Microsoft ( #Azure ).

Competition is a natural part of business, and the tech industry is no exception. Indeed, it’s competition that leads to end users getting the best possible products in their hands. However, the picture gets a little muddy when it comes to open source.
