Find out in this report how the two Data Warehouse solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."One of the most important features is the ease of using MS SQL."
"The solution has been reliable."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is performance."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"I like Data Warehouse's data integrity features. Data integrity is what databases are made for as opposed to spreadsheets."
"It is not a pricey product compared to other data warehouse solutions."
"It has allowed fast daily loads and analysis of millions of rows of data, which eventually moved to near real-time."
"It performs very well overall."
"It's super easy to deploy and it also supports different languages and analytics."
"The parallel load features mean that Greenplum is capable of high-volume data loading in parallel to all of the cluster segments, which is really valuable."
"We chose Greenplum because of the architecture in terms of clustering databases and being able to have, or at least utilize the resources that are sitting on a database."
"A very good, open-source platform."
"Scalable (Massive) Parallel Processing (MPP) – The ability to bring to bear large amounts of compute against large data sets with Greenplum and the EMC DCA has proven itself to be very effective."
"With VMware Tanzu Greenplum, one can make a huge database table and analyze the queries by adding in the SQL command. Some hint or command for the query goes over the multi-parallel execution."
"The loading speed is very good."
"Helps us to achieve large-scale analytics."
"This solution would be improved with an option for in-memory data analysis."
"It could offer more development across the solution."
"The solution is expensive and has room for improvement."
"SQL installation is pretty tricky. The scalability and customer support also should be improved."
"More tools to help designers should be included."
"The reporting for certain types of data needs to be improved."
"If the database is large with a lot of columns then it is difficult to clean the data."
"I would like the ability to do more real-time type updates instead of batch-oriented updates."
"Maintenance is time-consuming."
"VMware Tanzu Greenplum needs improvement in the memory area and improved methods for quick access to the disc. So, one of the quick goals of Greenplum must work on enhancing access to the disc by adding hints in the database."
"The initial setup is somewhat complex and the out-of-the-box configuration requires optimization."
"Lacks sufficient inbuilt machine-learning functions for complex use cases."
"The installation is difficult and should be made easier."
"Tanzu Greenplum's compression for GPText could be made more efficient."
"they need to interact more with customers. They need to explain the features, especially when there are new releases of Greenplum. I know just from information I've found that it has other features, it can be used to for analytics, for integration with Big Data, Hadoop. They need to focus on this part with the customer."
"Some integration with other platforms like design tools, and ETL development tools, that will enable some advanced functionality, like fully down processing, etc."
