Rdbms Vs Hadoop

The document compares RDBMS and Hadoop. RDBMS is a traditional row-column database used for data storage, manipulation and retrieval, while ensuring ACID properties. Hadoop is an open-source software framework for large-scale storage and processing of structured and unstructured data across commodity hardware. It is highly scalable and supports concurrent processes.

Difference Between RDBMS and Hadoop

RDMS (Relational Database Management System): RDBMS is an information management


system, which is based on a data model. In RDBMS tables are used for information storage.
Each row of the table represents a record and column represents an attribute of data.
Organization of data and their manipulation processes are different in RDBMS from other
databases. RDBMS ensures ACID (atomicity, consistency, integrity, durability) properties
required for designing a database. The purpose of RDBMS is to store, manage, and retrieve data
as quickly and reliably as possible.

Hadoop: It is an open-source software framework used for storing data and running applications
on a group of commodity hardware. It has large storage capacity and high processing power. It
can manage multiple concurrent processes at the same time. It is used in predictive analysis, data
mining and machine learning. It can handle both structured and unstructured form of data. It is
more flexible in storing, processing, and managing data than traditional RDBMS. Unlike
traditional systems, Hadoop enables multiple analytical processes on the same data at the same
time. It supports scalability very flexibly.
