We performed a comparison between IBM Netezza Performance Server and Oracle Multitenant based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Snowflake Computing, Oracle, Teradata and others in Data Warehouse."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 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 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."
"The performance is most important to me, and it helps our ability to make business decisions quickly."
"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 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."
"The database becomes pluggable. Inside this container is called a pluggable database and each application contains this pluggable database inside Multitenant. We can then share resources like control files, memory, etc. This lets you stop and start each application without impacting the others. This resource sharing is the most valuable feature"
"The feature that I like on Multitenant is the ease - it is very easy for my team to run the database."
"Maintaining databases is a valuable feature for us."
"The most valuable features are the speed and ease of use."
"You can scale the solution as needed."
"Multitenant has a container database with many pluggable databases."
"It's easy to use and works great."
"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."
"The scalability is not as expected. The capacity in the black box is not enough."
"The only issue is that it's not expandable."
"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."
"IBM Netezza Performance Server could improve its interface, support for big data, and APA-based connectivity should be available."
"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."
"Oracle Exadata's security features, like TDE encryption, are missing in IBM Netezza Performance Server."
"LIke Teradata, we can’t add a node/SPU to the existing appliance."
"It can be complicated to scale up the solution, but it's scalable."
"Technical support could be faster."
"It would be beneficial to include this solution with Oracle Enterprise, but Oracle charges additional fees for it."
"The solution lacks a GUI for commands."
"That said, Oracle in general doesn't invest in their UI for any of their applications. If we're talking about the dashboard or other user experience, there is room for improvement. I'm talking about on premises. The cloud version has started to improve."
"This solution is a bit complicated when collecting from containers - that feature should be a bit better."
"The user interface for this solution can be made better."
