We performed a comparison between Cloudera Distribution for Hadoop and IBM Netezza Performance Server based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two NoSQL Databases solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It is helpful to gather and process data."
"It has the best proxy, security, and support features compared to open-source products."
"We also really like the Cloudera community. You can have any question and will have your answer within a few hours."
"We had a data warehouse before all the data. We can process a lot more data structures."
"I don't see any performance issues."
"The search function is the most valuable aspect of the solution."
"The most valuable feature is Kubernetes."
"Provides a viable open-source solution for enterprise implementations and reliable, intelligent data analysis."
"The most valuable features of the IBM Netezza Performance Server are the NPS server because of the reduced maintenance and overall good performance."
"The most valuable feature would be the fact that it has been running for awhile in an appliance format."
"IBM Netezza Performance Server is a cost-effective solution."
"We are able to execute very complex queries. Over 90 percent of our query executions are one second or less. We do millions of queries everyday."
"Distribution concurrency control."
"The underlying hardware that IBM provides with this appliance is made for a specific purpose, to serve performance on a large amount of data, and to do analytics as well. It is faster, when you compare it to any other product."
"The performance is most important to me, and it helps our ability to make business decisions quickly."
"The benefit is really because of the additional speed that we have and, truth be told, the more updated ETL processes and the revamped scheduler in general."
"Currently, we are using many other tools such as Spark and Blade Job to improve the performance."
"It would be useful if Cloudera had more tools like SQL Engines that offer the traditional relational database. We have to do a lot of work preparing the data outside Cloudera before getting it into the platform."
"The tool's ability to be deployed on a cloud model is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"They should focus on upgrading their technical capabilities in the market."
"Cloudera Distribution for Hadoop is not always completely stable in some cases, which can be a concern for big data solutions."
"I would like to see an improvement in how the solution helps me to handle the whole cluster."
"It could be faster and more user-friendly."
"The solution does not support multiple languages very well and this means users need to create work-arounds to implement some solutions."
"LIke Teradata, we can’t add a node/SPU to the existing appliance."
"Our main problem with it is concurrency. When there are too many users running Netezza at the same time, this is when we have the most complaints."
"Concurrency limit needs to be increased somewhat."
"The only issue is that it's not expandable."
"IBM Netezza Performance Server could improve its interface, support for big data, and APA-based connectivity should be available."
"We are not able to scale. The only way to scale is to get another appliance, but we have a customers who would need us to hydrate the data between the two appliances, and Netezza does not do that."
"Oracle Exadata's security features, like TDE encryption, are missing in IBM Netezza Performance Server."
"In terms of features that I would like to see, one is the ability to actually scale out an architecture. Right now, if you buy one, it's fixed. There is no scale-up availability at all."
