Waiting for Hadoop is like Waiting for Godot, says Gartner

Adrian said Yarn for Hadoop would kickstart deployments as it enables cluster research management to support batch processing, supports interactive SQL, in-memory working, streaming and events and search, as well as noSQL operations. "Yarn changes the game, it all starts here. It is certain, even though in Godot they say 'Nothing is certain'."

He also tipped Hadoop Spark as a major driver for 2015 adoption as it was an in-memory and on-disk execution engine for the multiple re-use of data, with interactive data mining. Spark will come to market next year.
