Apache Falcon provides a framework for simplifying the development of data management applications in Apache Hadoop. Falcon enables users to automate the movement and processing of data sets. Instead of hard-coding complex data set and pipeline processing capabilities, Hadoop applications can now rely on the Apache Falcon framework for these functions.
