“Pepperdata allowed us to significantly increase capacity for our Amazon EMR workloads and reduce our EC2 costs by over 50%. We can focus on our business, while they optimize for costs and performance.”

“If a job slows down or stops, we can quickly drill down to pinpoint when the trouble occurred and see what activity was occurring or changing on the cluster. We also love to see historical trends over a long period of time because it gives great indications of how we are doing. That capability is invaluable.”

“I was thinking there’s no way there’s a 30% overhead in [YARN or Hadoop] that everyone is paying that isn’t fixed… But you see it in the numbers [with Pepperdata] that it’s true.”

“Pepperdata Capacity Optimizer helps optimize the efficiency of our infrastructure to reduce our spending.”

“Capacity Optimizer is a simple easy to implement – easy to use application that will save you money right from the get go… Right out of the box you will see a 10 to 15% savings. The support is top notch – they go above and beyond in getting the most out of the product. This is a no brainer for any Big Data workload.”

“The capacity optimizer helped us to reduce the wastage on EMR clusters and increased the efficiency. For one of the clusters – the savings was as big as 75%. For others we are seeing at least 30% savings.”
