Hortonworks` mission is to establish Hadoop as the foundational technology of the modern enterprise data architecture. We seek to advance the market adoption of Hadoop and provide enterprises with a new data management solution that enables them to harness the power of big data to transform their businesses through more effective and efficient management of their valuable data assets. A Hadoop cluster combines commodity servers with local storage and an open source software distribution to create a reliable distributed compute and storage platform for large data sets scalable up to PBs, with thousands of servers or nodes. Our solution is an enterprise-grade data management platform built on a unique distribution of Apache Hadoop and powered by YARN. We continuously drive innovation in the Apache community with a mission to further Hadoop’s development for enterprises of all types and sizes. Our platform deeply integrates with key data center technologies to enable best-of-breed data architectures and enables our customers to collect, store, process and analyze increasing amounts of existing and new data types in a way that augments rather than replaces their existing data center infrastructure.
