Netezza Analytics Scalability

SK
Project Manager at MAF Retail

There is no scalability at all. It is an on-premises solution, and if you want to scale then you have to buy another version.

Indirectly, we have about four hundred users.

It is scalable to multiples of itself. If currently it is 1X, I can go to 3X, 4X, 5X. I cannot go 1.2, 1.5, 1.8. I have to go 1X, 2X, 3X, a whole interval. That is the only catch, otherwise yes, it is scalable.

As an on-premises appliance, we have to add boxes, but that's an option if we need to scale. It's not as scalable as a cloud solution; it's limited by certain boundaries. We have about 20-30 people using the solution currently.

No, we didn't have enough data to really press it. The TF-6 at the time could support towards 64TB. We were using 10TB. When running queries natively, it processed most large data queries quickly.

Netezza promoted MapReduce functionality as add-on software, but I thought the support for it was very poor. I wasn't aware of any community that was able to get that up and running.

We didn’t have many scalability issues, except when it touches the PB storage data and we need to move it to external storage. Netezzas’ highest model storage capacity is 1.2 PB.

This solution is scalable but it needs to be improved.

We have forty users and we don't plan to increase usage at this time.

The scalability of the solution seems good. We've been able to move from small to large databases quite easily.

The scalability is not good. They claim it's scalable but it's not, especially in comparison with other solutions.
