We performed a comparison between CockroachDB and IBM Netezza Performance Server based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Oracle, SAP and others in Relational Databases Tools."CockroachDB is highly reliable."
"The product has valuable security features."
"I use CockroachDB to test big data samples and to create the best structure for databases. We have four users and required 10 people for deployment and maintenance."
"The tool's most valuable feature is node syncing, which takes only 0.54 milliseconds."
"The best feature of CockroachDB is the ability to keep the nodes in different locations."
"The subset of SQL that my client is using is completely supported."
"The availability and the easy to use feature is the most valuable. The documentation is also good."
"The most valuable features of the solution are its resiliency features and the geo-partitioning capabilities."
"The most valuable features of the IBM Netezza Performance Server are the NPS server because of the reduced maintenance and overall good performance."
"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."
"IBM Netezza Performance Server is a cost-effective solution."
"The data governance prospect... from what I've seen, that is a really powerful tool as well, to help with data lineage and keeping track of that."
"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 most valuable feature would be the fact that it has been running for awhile in an appliance format."
"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."
"The platform could be more extensible."
"I find the serverless offer a bit confusing."
"The product must improve its disaster recovery features."
"We are looking for more features to support distributed high availability and geo-partitioning."
"The closer they can make CockroachDB to being completely compatible with Postgres, the better. It's almost compatible, but not completely. If it was, it would be nice to just be able to use Postgres libraries without any fiddling."
"Cockroach does not support all types of protocols. I need to improve it myself to support a CouchDB on my network."
"The initial setup and pricing could be improved."
"CockroachDB needs to improve store processes."
"Concurrency limit needs to be increased somewhat."
"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."
"LIke Teradata, we can’t add a node/SPU to the existing appliance."
"The scalability is not as expected. The capacity in the black box is not enough."
"The only issue is that it's not expandable."
"Oracle Exadata's security features, like TDE encryption, are missing in IBM Netezza Performance Server."
"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."
"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."
