HDInsight is Microsoft's implementation of a Big Data solution with Apache Hadoop at its core. HDInsight is 100 percent compatible with Apache Hadoop and is built on open source components in conjunction with Hortonworks, a company focused toward getting Hadoop adopted on the Windows platform. HDInsight Microsoft Initiate Basically, Microsoft has taken the open source Hadoop project, added the functionalities needed to make it compatible with Windows (because Hadoop is based on Linux), and submitted the project back to the community.  All of the components are retested in typical scenarios to ensure that they work together correctly and that there are no versioning or compatibility issues. Features Microsoft's Hadoop-based distribution brings the robustness, manageability, and simplicity of Windows to the Hadoop environment.  The focus is on hardening security through integration with Active Directory, thus making it enterprise ready, simplifying manageability through in...
