The purpose of this study is to compare and contrast the different on-premises and cloud-based Hadoop distributions. We will also analyze and contrast various cloud-based offerings and parts. We have settled on Cloudera as our Hadoop distribution of choice and Amazon and Azure as our cloud distribution services of choice. The advent of distributed cloud services has made it feasible to utilize and integrate a wide range of IT services with little to no human work, thanks to the efforts of many open-source communities. Since some businesses do not view cloud services as a reliable or secure option for their data, cloud service providers (CSPs) are considering hybrid solutions as a trend. During the last several years, we have seen a general trend of convergence amongst various distributions, and the public cloud has emerged as the deployment strategy of choice for most organizations. Its convergence makes it difficult to draw meaningful comparisons. The goal of this research is to lay the groundwork for future comparison studies by creating a generic approach to comparing cloud services and Hadoop distributions.
