Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The data transmissions between the data models is the most valuable feature.""One of the most important features is the ease of using MS SQL.""The solution's integration is good.""I like Data Warehouse's data integrity features. Data integrity is what databases are made for as opposed to spreadsheets.""Microsoft Parallel Data Warehouse integrates beautifully with other Microsoft ecosystem products.""We are able to monitor daily jobs, so if there is anything that needs to be done then we can do it.""Collecting the data through SSIS packages from different sources and putting them all in one data repository is the most powerful thing. While others have this feature, they don't have the simplicity or ease of use when getting a resource and knowing everything about it.""We have complete control over our data."

More Microsoft Parallel Data Warehouse Cons →

"The installation is difficult and should be made easier.""The solution needs improvement on performance.""Extra filters would be helpful.""Maintenance is time-consuming.""Their implementation is quite tricky. It's not that easy to implement RabbitMQ as a cluster.""The debugging capabilities and testing flexibilities need to be improved.""Implementing a circuit breaker scenario using RabbitMQ is complicated. This complexity arises because manual intervention is required to manage worker details and handle operations based on worker IP addresses.""The product needs to focus on offering more use case documentation because browsing the internet to find it can be a process filled with struggles."

    Overview

    The traditional structured relational data warehouse was never designed to handle the volume of exponential data growth, the variety of semi-structured and unstructured data types, or the velocity of real time data processing. Microsoft's SQL Server data warehouse solution integrates your traditional data warehouse with non-relational data and it can handle data of all sizes and types, with real-time performance.

    VMware Tanzu is a robust platform tailored for data warehousing, complex analytics, BI applications, and predictive analytics. It excels in scalability, performance, and parallel processing, enhancing data handling efficiency. Users report significant productivity improvements and streamlined operations, making it ideal for comprehensive data solutions.
