Furthermore, the numerous enhancements that have led to this release make it a great option for on-premise and cloud-based cluster deployment.”
This update bundles together many significant enhancements, most notably support for Apache Spark and Apache HBase, as well as Scientific Python integration. Other improvements to the Syncfusion Big Data Platform include:
- Direct support for managing Oozie jobs.
- Improved integration with Syncfusion’s machine learning runtime.
