comparison of Ambari and Cloudera Manager

[#1]

I have to enumerate functional comparisons of Ambari and Cloudera Manager

Actually I have to do it by comparing use of Ambari and Cloudera Manager. But I have no time and ability to use them for comparison.

Anybody who can help me to compare funtional differences of Ambari and Cloudera Manager?

If there is any point in internet for that, tell me also please.

Thanks

Ambari has been around at least 3 years less than CM, in that time, it gained a massive following from many different companies and contributors. CM is essentially a proprietary product limiting itself in innovation from community. It is known to have more features but Ambari is gaining in this area benefiting from the same reason I'd mentioned above. Hortonworks, IBM, Pivotal, Infosys, etc all use Ambari as their main Hadoop configuration interface and it benefits everyone that it works well. Ambari also has a feature called Ambari views, you can create your owns views, add custom services, feature that CM I believe does not have. One missing piece is Oozie workflow editor but with such a large community and many contributors, I am hoping we close the gap very soon! @jarhyeon cho

This is one of the best explanations link

From Cost & Business prospective...I would stay aware of vendor lock in approach

What are the differences between the Free Edition and the Enterprise Edition?

Cloudera Manager Free Edition is a free version of the commercially-available Cloudera Manager product. Cloudera Manager Free Edition and Cloudera Manager automate the installation and configuration of CDH3 or CDH4 on an entire cluster. Cloudera Manager provides additional functionality.

See the matrix at How to Upgrade the Free Edition to Cloudera Manager in Cloudera Manager Free Edition Installation Guide for a comparison of the two versions. You can also view a discussion of the differences at http://www.cloudera.com/products-services/tools/.

The full-featured version of Cloudera Manager is available as part of the Cloudera Enterprise subscription offering, and requires a license.

If you are not an existing Cloudera customer, contact Cloudera Sales for information about obtaining the full-featured version of Cloudera Manager.

If you are already a Cloudera customer and you need to upgrade the Free Edition to Cloudera Manager, contact Cloudera Support to obtain a license.
