Vertica

As “big data” growth and the importance of monetizing this information continue, more companies are joining a growing ecosystem of data warehousing and analytics solutions. Not every company can provide all of the tools you need to make the most of your business-critical information, so Vertica partners with best-of-breed tools that integrate with the Vertica Analytics Platform.

Through our standard connectors and a flexible API, Vertica assists customers in moving data into and out of the Vertica Analytics Platform, in creating reports, dashboards and queries, and in developing applications that offer drastically better query performance and scalability. Vertica offers this industry-standard connectivity through ODBC, JDBC, ADO.Net and our rich API as well as native integrations and certifications with a variety of tools like Cognos, MicroStrategy, Tableau and others. Vertica also offers an Informatica plug-in.

Vertica’s Hadoop Connector

Vertica was the first analytic database company to deliver a bi-directional Hadoop Connector enabling seamless integration and job scheduling between the two distributed environments. With Vertica’s Hadoop and Pig Connectors, users have unprecedented flexibility and speed in loading data from Hadoop to Vertica and querying data from Vertica in Hadoop as part of MapReduce jobs for example. The Vertica Hadoop and Pig Connectors are open source, supported by Vertica, and available for download.

Vertica provides optimized JDBC and ODBC client drivers for most platforms including Windows, Linux, Solaris, AIX, and others.
