We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros | |
Maintaining databases is a valuable feature for us. The management and administration are the solution's most valuable features. It's very, very easy to have many databases under one major database that is controlling everything. 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 most valuable features are the speed and ease of use. | Vertica's most outstanding features are the compression rates achieved and the speed of access of high volume data. Allows us to take volumes and process them at a very high speed. Eighty percent of the ETL operations have improved since implementing this solution. It maximize cloud economics for mission-critical big data analytical initiatives. It maximizes cloud economics with Eon Mode by scaling cluster size to meet variable workload demands. Bulk loads, batch loads, and micro-batch loads have made it possible for our organization to process near real-time ingestions and faster analytics. Any novice user can tune vertical queries with minimal training (or no training at all). Vertica gives knowledgeable users and DBAs excellent tools for tuning. |
Cons | |
It would be beneficial to include this solution with Oracle Enterprise, but Oracle charges additional fees for it. In general, the pricing is expensive for this solution. It's one of the most expensive products. 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. The user interface for this solution can be made better. | Support is an area where it could get better. Promotion/marketing must be improved, even though it is a very useful product at very good price, it is not as "popular" as it should be. Fact-to-fact joins on multi-billion record tables perform poorly. It needs integration with multiple clouds. It should provide a GUI interface for data management and tuning. Monitoring tools need to be lightweight. They should not take up heavy resources of the main server. If you do not utilize the tuning tools like projections, encoding, partitions, and statistics, then performance and scalability will suffer. It would be great if this were a managed service in AWS. |
Pricing and Cost Advice | |
For me, I will go with it if I have the budget. Some features are nicer than before, but at the end of the day, you always have a limited budget. I prefer to upgrade and get a specific hardware when possible. At the end, you will have to make a compromise. You will not get everything you would have liked to have. This solution is a little bit pricey. | It is fast to purchase through the AWS Marketplace. The pricing and licensing depend on the size of your environment and the zone where you want to implement. Read the fine print carefully. I think it's starting to get a little expensive. Open source products are starting to get more robust, so I think that's something that they need to start looking at in terms of licensing. The first TB is free and you can use all the Vertica features. After 1TB you have to pay for licensing. The product is worth it, but be aware of this condition, and plan. The compression ratio is explained in the documentation. Start with license per 1TB. Starting from hundreds of TB there is unlimited licensing to be considered. Move historical data to HDFS/S3 which are significantly cheaper or even free. |
