"The most valuable feature for us is horizontal scaling.""It's super easy to deploy and it also supports different languages and analytics.""Scalable (Massive) Parallel Processing (MPP) – The ability to bring to bear large amounts of compute against large data sets with Greenplum and the EMC DCA has proven itself to be very effective.""We chose Greenplum because of the architecture in terms of clustering databases and being able to have, or at least utilize the resources that are sitting on a database.""A very good, open-source platform.""Scalability is simple because it's an MPP database. If you need more processing power or you need more storage, you just add a few more nodes in the cluster. It works on common commodity hardware. You can use any type of server. You don't need to have proprietary hardware. It's fairly flexible.""The loading speed is very good.""Helps us to achieve large-scale analytics."

Cons
"It could be a bit more user-friendly.""Stability-wise, we have had some issues with automation and the ability to handle large datasets.""The cost of Teradata Cloud Data Warehouse has room for improvement."

More Teradata Cloud Data Warehouse Cons →

"One of the disadvantages, not a disadvantage with the product itself, but overall, is the expertise in the marketplace. It's not easy to find a Greenplum administrator in the market, compared to other products such as Oracle.""We would like to see Greenplum maintain a closer relationship with and parity to features implemented in PostgreSQL.""Lacks sufficient inbuilt machine-learning functions for complex use cases.""The installation is difficult and should be made easier.""Some integration with other platforms like design tools, and ETL development tools, that will enable some advanced functionality, like fully down processing, etc.""VMware Tanzu Greenplum needs improvement in the memory area and improved methods for quick access to the disc. So, one of the quick goals of Greenplum must work on enhancing access to the disc by adding hints in the database.""It will be very useful if we could communicate with other database types from Greenplum (using a database link).""Initial setup is a little complex. It took around two weeks to deploy."
