Hadoop is an excellent tool for analyzing large data sets, but it lacks an easy-to-use graphical interface. RapidMiner is an excellent tool for data analytics, but its data size is limited by the memory available, and a single machine is often not enough to run the analyses on time. In this project, we combine the strengths of both projects and provide a RapidMiner extension for editing and running ETL, data analytics and machine learning processes over Hadoop.
Rapid-I now releases the first open source solution for business analytics. The process-oriented approach of RapidMiner and RapidAnalytics allows the direct and even real-time integration into business processes.
