The world moved away from Hadoop and MapReduce… onto what?

Cloud SQL data warehouses like Snowflake and BigQuery.

I just wish AWS had something as good as BigQuery.

There are companies that use BigQuery for analytics but their infra is in AWS. BigQuery has support for external tables to S3 now. The BigQuery transfer service can also move data from AWS pretty easily. I agree though, BigQuery is astonishingly good and makes both Snowflake and Redshift look like dinosaurs imo.

Throw a dart at the Apache project list :-)

My god do we need an atlas of database related Apache projects.

It's almost as bad as java web frameworks about ten years ago.

Everyone can do everything and it's hard to know what is better for what.

Add to this “Apache Streaming projects”.

I get that projects can be donated to Apache from disparate sources, but my god it’s still a disaster.
