Vertica Erfahrungen

light weight platform that works very well

Kommentare: We were looking for an analytics platform that can work concurrently with hadoop clusters that was focused on performance and could also be inter-changeably used as a data processing engine.

Vorteile:

It is light weight and nimble but at the same time is good on performance - the fact that it is column store without the real need for indexing makes it easier to get started and then the storage requirement is also much smaller thanks to coding schemas and algorithms.

Nachteile:

for me, the biggest issue was the fact that it really affects performance when we try to run many large concurrent queries - I wish there was a solution to this. In addition, initial cost of investment to get started on Vertica may discourage SMB's.
