Find out what your peers are saying about Snowflake Computing, Oracle, Teradata and others in Data Warehouse."It has very amazing smart grid query feature for very fast aggregate queries across millions of rows"
"I like the projection feature, which increases query performance."
"The feature I like best is performance. We use Red Tool and Red Job for the data warehouse and reporting. It's perfect. Performance is good, and it can return ad hoc queries very quickly. Of course, it's a cluster, so it's easy to scale."
"The most valuable feature of Vertica is the ability to receive large aggregations at a very quick pace. The use case of subclusters is very good."
"Vertica's most outstanding features are the compression rates achieved and the speed of access of high volume data."
"The extensibility and efficiency provided by their C++ SDK."
"Eighty percent of the ETL operations have improved since implementing this solution."
"The most valuable feature is Vertica's performance and the ease of using the database."
"It's the fastest database I have ever tested. That's the most important feature of Vertica."
"Only the data from the columns that reached 2GB will actually decrease. Other columns below 2GB in size do not leave the disk."
"It would be great if this were a managed service in AWS."
"I would personally like to see extended developer tooling suited to Vertica – think published PowerDesigner SQL dialect support."
"Fact-to-fact joins on multi-billion record tables perform poorly."
"Vertica seems to scale well, except for one use case where you are on a multi-node cluster. For example, if you had a nine-node cluster, one node goes down, then the eight nodes don't scale, because the absence of the node is very apparent, which is a problem. If you have nine nodes or multiple nodes, the whole idea is that if one of those nodes goes down, then you should not see an impact on the system if you have enough capacity. Even though we have enough capacity, you can still see the impact of the one node going down."
"One feature, which has really benefited us, is the scalability offered by Vertica as it has enabled Pythian's clients to manage data with agility."
"Vertica can improve automation and documentation. Additionally, the solution can be simplified."
"The biggest problem is the cost of cloud deployment."
"I believe the installation process could be streamlined."
