Data Lake Development with Big Data

Key benefits of Data Lake

Having understood the need for the Data Lake and the business/technology context of its evolution, let us now summarize the important benefits in the following list:

• Scale as much as you can: Theoretically, the HDFS-based storage of Hadoop gives you the flexibility to support arbitrarily large clusters while maintaining a constant price per performance curve even as it scales. This means, your data storage can be scaled horizontally to cater to any need at a judicious cost. To gain more space, all you have to do is plug in a new cluster and then Hadoop scales seamlessly. Hadoop brings you the incredible facility to run the code close to storage, allowing quicker processing of massive data sets. The usage of Hadoop for ...
