#Hadoop is synonymous with #bigdata, providing both storage and processing resources for large and disparate data sources—not to mention a platform for third-party software vendors to build upon. Where will the distributed computing system go in 2017? Here are five macro trends impacting Hadoop to keep an eye out this year. Later this month, Hadoop will turn 11 years old. That’s an eternity in the IT biz. But will it be enough to slow the spread of adoption? 1. It Ain’t Dead Yet Rumors of Hadoop’s demise are greatly exaggerated, according to George Corugedo, CTO of data integration software vendor RedPoint Global. “Don’t be a Ha-dope!,” he declares. “For all those folks running around saying Hadoop is dead – they’re dead wrong.” Corguedo predicts that we’ll see increased adoption of Hadoop in 2017. “So far this year [2016], I haven’t talked to a single organization with a digital data platform who doesn’t see Hadoop at the center of their infrastructure. Hadoop is an assumed part of every modern data architecture and nobody can question the value it brings with its flexibility of data ingestion and its scalable computational power. Hadoop is not going to replace other databases but it will be an essential part of data ingestion in the IoT/digital world.”
There are some numbers to back up the claim that Hadoop usage is expanding, not shrinking. In a recent survey, AtScale, which develops a BI solution for Hadoop, found production deployments of Hadoop expanded from 64% of surveyed organizations in 2015 to 73% in 2016.
If the Hadoop distributors can address the data governance issues and the complexity of Hadoop sub-project integration, it could be a golden year for Hadoop. Kunal Agarwal, the CEO of Hadoop performance software vendor Unravel Data, sees a big year ahead for Hadoop and its in-memory sidekick Spark.
“[In 2016] we saw a complete shift in the way many enterprises viewed Hadoop and Spark,” Agarwal tells Datanami. “What was once thought of as an unstable platform is becoming the cornerstone of any company utilizing big data in their solutions.”
The folks at Infogix are similarly bullish on the yellow elephant. “More and more organizations will be adopting Hadoop and other big data stores, in turn, vendors will rapidly introduce new, innovative Hadoop solutions,” Infogix CEO and President Sumit Nijhawan says.
