5/5
What do you like best about Azure Data Lake Analytics?

The File system namespace is the most intriguing and interesting part to me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Data Lake Analytics?

I believe the archive tier should have a cheaper option, for example, archive deep-dive sort of thing and the charges should be as per retrieval strategy in a year. Some of us might not need to retrieve the data more than twice a year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
