"Reliable and Scalable storage for Managing Bigdata"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Azure Data Lake Store?

Azure Data Lake Store has been solid for handling high-volume data in our pipeline. We use it frequently for storing raw and processed data across different projects, and it scales well as our data grows. Integration with Azure Data Factory and Databricks makes implementation smoother and ease compared to setting things up from scratch. I also appreciate the access control flexibility through RBAC and ACLs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure Data Lake Store?

Setting it up initially took some time, especially figuring out the permission structure and understanding the pricing breakdown. It wasn’t the most intuitive process. Customer support is responsive, but sometimes it takes a few back-and-forths to get to the root of a more technical issue. Also, during high-frequency usage, there have been rare moments of latency, especially when querying large files directly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
