The core of CLOUDERA’s platform, CDH, is open source (Apache License), so users always have the option to move their DATA to an alternative -- and thus Cloudera must continually earn your business based on merit. In fact, Cloudera is an open source leader in Big Data, with its employees collectively contributing more code to the Hadoop ecosystem than those of any other company.

Cloudera complements this open core with closed source management software that provides key enterprise functionality requested by customers such as SUPPORT for rolling upgrades, auditing management, and disaster recovery. That software, however, does not store or PROCESS data and thus lock-in is not an issue.
