Benefits of Tez

Apache Tez provides a more robust execution model than Hadoop MapReduce, and the new Cascading query planner can make full use of the changes.

The biggest change is that Tez allows the complete Flow can execute as a single job so there are no intermediate files stored to HDFS to link jobs.
