Pick Google Cloud Managed Lustre if…
It suits teams running HPC simulations, modeling and analysis, or machine-learning workloads that need a parallel file system. It is designed for users who can provision capacity and mount instances to Google Cloud compute services.
Pick Hadoop Distributed File System if…
HDFS suits organizations building self-hosted Hadoop storage for high-throughput batch or streaming workloads. Its stated design fits large files and clusters, rather than low-latency access needs.
