Top 12 Hadoop Technology Companies
Hadoop, a platform developed by The Apache Software Foundation, is a popular open-source Big Data platform for distributed processing of large datasets across clusters of computers. Each system in Apache Hadoop acts as a storage device and as a computation platform. It is one of the most widely used platforms for developers to build Big Data solutions. It offers easy scalability options from a single system to thousands of machines and uses commodity hardware, which reduces costs for organizations.
The Hadoop market size was valued at $ 26.74 billion in 2019, and is projected to reach $340.35 billion by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 37.5% from 2020 to 2027. Hadoop is an open source software administered by Apache software foundation. It is a distributed processing technology that can be used in different sectors for big data analysis. It is much cost effective compared to traditional data analysis tools such as Relational Database Management System (RDBMS). Apache Hadoop is a simple, powerful, efficient, and shared platform. However, Hadoop technology deployment provides features such as scalability, which helps in reducing operating cost and use of commodity hardware for reliable distribution.
Here are top 12 Hadoop technology companies expected to contribute to this fast-growing market:
