Hello Charise, I came across your inquiry and I think I can help answer your questions. We (Data Meaning) are a preferred Alteryx partner and planning on presenting your exact question to the Orlando user group in January. We are partnering with Adventist Health (they host the user group) on Alteryx & Cloudera integration.
Please feel free to reach out to me to set up a call to discuss in further detail...anthony.allen@datameaning.com
