Trunk Data Platform (TDP): sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Trunk Data Platform (TDP) is an open source Hadoop distribution built from the source code of Apache projects. It includes components such as ZooKeeper, Hadoop, Tez, Spark, Hive and HBase, and is aimed at organisations that want to run a big-data platform under their own control. According to the project it targets public and private clouds as well as on-premise bare-metal infrastructure, with a secure mode and high availability as defaults. The source code is hosted on GitHub.

TDP is developed through TOSIT, a French non-profit association (loi 1901) of large end users, with EDF and the French tax administration DGFiP having co-built the distribution. The project is released under the Apache License 2.0 and, according to its makers, is free to use without vendor lock-in. Because you install and operate the distribution yourself, your data stays on your own infrastructure. You do have to organise maintenance and updates yourself or engage a service provider.
