A Journey to Choose an Enterprise Big Data Platform
summary
Organization abandons five‑year‑old on‑prem Hadoop after a 61‑criteria evaluation across seven categories and chooses GCP as a second cloud, citing BigQuery (99.99% SLA vs Redshift 99.90%), TPU speed/cost gains (≈27% faster, 38% cheaper), Dataflow and Cloud Data Prep for autoscaling and serverless ETL, and GCS multi‑region cost parity. Pilot costs grow 3% month‑on‑month for 15 months until quotas, budgets and third‑party monitoring cut growth below 1%, and migration to GCP begins.
