| Fact | Apache Hop | Prophecy |
|---|---|---|
| Deployment | The download page provides Docker images for Hop and Hop Web and a Helm chart for Kubernetes; Hop Web is described as work in progress and provided as-is. | Visual workflows deploy as production-ready code on the customer’s cloud data platform, including native Snowflake SQL workflows that run inside Snowflake. |
| Security | The security page advises upgrading to a version containing a vulnerability fix because binary patches are not produced for individual vulnerabilities. | Prophecy says it works against data in place and keeps descriptive metadata; its trust page describes AES-256 encryption at rest and TLS 1.3 in transit. |
Hop suits data teams that want visual pipeline design and workflow orchestration across varied databases and execution environments. It is appropriate for users able to manage Java 21 for version 2.19.0 and carefully restrict destructive operations.
Prophecy suits data teams building and reviewing visual preparation workflows for supported data platforms. Enterprise Express is described as designed for small to mid-size data teams, while Professional is intended for data teams.
