The installation was done with the help of a third party.

We implement the product with the help of our in-house team.

The solution was implemented in-house. 

The deployment can be done in-house.

A complete end-to-end setup of Microsoft Parallel Data Warehouse, which includes setting up the firewall and ensuring all the compliances and security features are met, could be a week-long activity. However, spinning up the resources is hardly a day's activity.

We implemented this solution with our in-house team.

Maintaining the product is easy because Microsoft does it for us. We don't need to do anything. It is upgraded by default.

We deployed using our in-house people.

We did not need a consultant or an integrator to help with the installation. The internal team that we have works to maintain the product, but they have other responsibilities as well. Sometimes, there will be two or three persons taking the responsibility of maintaining and working with the product on other levels. During the deployment, the entire team did the deployment. But right now, at most, there is only a two or three-person team that works with it consistently.  

We always do it in collaboration with the vendor team, and thus ensure we get the best out of our investment.

I recommend getting assistance from an integrator or consultant with the integration.

Our in-house team, including our DBA, handled the deployment.

We deploy this solution for our clients.
