What is the difference between Google Cloud Dataflow and Google Cloud Dataproc

0 votes
I am using Google Data Flow to implement an ETL data ware house solution.

Looking into google cloud offering, it seems DataProc can also do the same thing.

It also seems DataProc is little bit cheaper than DataFlow.

Does anybody know the pros / cons of DataFlow over DataProc

Why does google offer both?

Cloud Dataflow and Dataproc can both be used to implement ETL data warehousing solutions. An over about the same can be found here. 

  • Cloud Dataproc provides you with Hadoop cluster on GCP and access to Hadoop ecosystem tools (Apache Pig, Hive and Spark)
  • Cloud Dataflow provides you a place to run Apache Beam based jobs on GCP and you do not need to address common aspects of running jobs.
    • Beam jobs are not intended to be portable across 'runners'. Allows you to focus more on the logical computations
    • Cloud Dataflow also offers the ability to create jobs based on templates.
