Vertica Overview

The Vertica Analytics Platform is purpose built from the very first line of code for Big Data analytics.

It is designed for use in data warehouses and other big data workloads where speed, scalability, simplicity, and openness are crucial to the success of analytics. Vertica relies on a tested, reliable distributed architecture and columnar compression to deliver blazingly fast speed. A simplified license and the capability to deploy anywhere delivers on the promise of big data analytics like no other solution.

All based on the same powerful, unified architecture, the Vertica Analytics Platform provides you with the broadest range of deployment models, so that you have complete choice as your analytical needs evolve:

Vertica Enterprise – The core “shared nothing,” distributed analytical database designed to work on clusters of cost-effective, off-the-shelf servers in your data center with unparalleled performance and extreme scale.
Vertica in the Clouds – Optimized and pre-configured to run on AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google and VMware clouds, Vertica is also available as a BYOL (Bring Your Own License) model to enable you to transition your data analytical workloads to the cloud to on premise and back seamlessly.
Vertica for SQL on Hadoop – Run the industry’s most comprehensive Vertica SQL analytics engine directly on your Hadoop cluster and tap into advanced SQL on Hadoop capabilities, complete 100 percent of the TPC-DS queries without modification, achieve greater concurrency, and run on any Hadoop distribution.
