The Vertica Analytics Platform is built for the scale and complexity of today’s data-driven world. We are trusted by thousands of leading, data-driven enterprises including Bank of America, Etsy, Twitter, Intuit, Uber and more to deliver speed, scale and reliability on mission-critical analytics, at a lower total cost of ownership than legacy systems. Vertica combines the power of a high-performance, massively parallel processing SQL query engine with advanced analytics and machine learning so you can unlock the true potential of your data with no limits and no compromises – available on-premise, in the clouds (AWS, Azure and GCP), on Apache Hadoop, or as a hybrid model.
Vertica features include:
– Column-oriented storage organization, which increases performance of queries.
– Standard SQL interface with advanced analytics capabilities built-in, such as time series, pattern matching, event series joins, machine learning and geospatial.
– Compression, which reduces storage costs and I/O bandwidth. High compression is possible because columns of homogeneous datatype are stored together and because updates to the main store are batched.
– Shared nothing architecture, which reduces system contention for shared resources and allows gradual degradation of performance in the face of hardware failure.
– Easy to use and maintain through automated data replication, server recovery, query optimization, and storage optimization.
– Support for standard programming interfaces ODBC, JDBC, ADO.NET, and OLEDB.
– Integration to Hadoop with the capability to perform analytics on ORC and Parquet files directly.
