[Beowulf] Beowulf Cluster VS Hadoop/Spark

[Jonathan Aquilina]

Hi All, 

Seeing the new activity about new clusters for 2017, this sparked a
thought in my mind here. Beowulf Cluster vs hadoop/spark 

In this day and age given that there is the technology with hadoop and
spark to crunch large data sets, why build a cluster of pc's instead of
use something like hadoop/spark? 

Happy New Year
