Hortonworks Data Platform (HDP)

Created in 2011 by Hortonworks, HDP (Hortonworks Data Platform) is a framework based on Apache Hadoop. It facilitates the management and manipulation of massive amounts of data by bringing together several components within a single solution. These include HDFS, Hbase, Hive, Spark, YARN, Zookeeper, and many others. HDP can store, process, query, and schedule data streams.

HDP is based on Apache Hadoop, so it benefits from a distributed architecture for manipulating data.

Since the merger between Hortonworks and Cloudera in 2019, HDP has been included in CDP (Cloudera Data Platform).
