Thanks for the info Brian. I am trying to compare performance difference between "Pivotal HAWQ/Greenplum with MADlib" vs "HDFS with MLlib".
Do you think Spark MLlib will perform better because of in-memory, caching and iterative processing capabilities? I need to perform large scale text analytics and I can data store on HDFS or on Pivotal Greenplum/Hawq.

MLlib assumes the data exists in some Spark-compatible data format. I would suggest you pick the library that matches your data platform first. DISCLAIMER: I am the original author of MADLib, though EMC/Pivotal assumed ownership rather quickly. ~~~~~~ May All Your Sequences Converge On Dec 14, 2014, at 6:26 AM, "Venkat, Ankam" <ankam.ven...@centurylink.com<mailto:ankam.ven...@centurylink.com>> wrote: Can somebody throw light on MLlib vs Madlib?
