It has also been witnessed that a large number of SMEs are looking for cost-effective solutions for managing their big data. Another major reason for the demand for hadoop-as-a-service (HDaaS) solutions by SMEs is the increasing competition in the business environment. Enterprises are facing the challenge of ever-increasing competition. To counteract this challenge, they need to manage and analyze big data solutions and derive actionable insight to come up with a customer-driven marketing strategy. Since HDaaS solutions are one of the best measures that enable companies to perform analytics activities with low capital investment, SMEs across the globe are increasingly starting to adopt HDaaS solutions.''
