Simply Fast RFID Data Management with the Vertica® Database

The Vertica® Database, designed to perform high-performance, complex queries across terabytes of data is the optimal solution for managing sensor data. Sensor data includes collections of readings and observations from monitoring devices (including RFID and cameras), industrial processes, various types of heavy machinery (engines, pumps, etc.), security applications, and even computer networks.

Sensor databases are typically characterized by a few large, rapidly growing tables of data. Analysis of sensor data often requires the extraction and aggregation of subsets of the data to compare historical trends or identify patterns in the sensor streams. The Vertica Database is particularly well suited for handling these queries.
