IBM Netezza Performance Server vs Redis comparison

"We are able to execute very complex queries. Over 90 percent of our query executions are one second or less. We do millions of queries everyday."

"The underlying hardware that IBM provides with this appliance is made for a specific purpose, to serve performance on a large amount of data, and to do analytics as well. It is faster, when you compare it to any other product."

"Distribution concurrency control."

"Parallel data processing is a significant feature for me."

"The performance is most important to me, and it helps our ability to make business decisions quickly."

"The most valuable features of the IBM Netezza Performance Server are the NPS server because of the reduced maintenance and overall good performance."

"The most valuable feature would be the fact that it has been running for awhile in an appliance format."

"The benefit is really because of the additional speed that we have and, truth be told, the more updated ETL processes and the revamped scheduler in general."

"The best thing about Redis is its ability to handle large amounts of data without frequently hitting the database. You can store data in temporary memory, especially for high-volume data."

"Redis acts as an in-memory search tool that improves the speed of operations."

"Redis is good for distributed caching management."

"The product offers fast access to my database."

"The most valuable features of Redis are its ease of use and speed. It does not have access to the disc and it is fast."

"The solution's technical support team is good...The solution's initial setup process was straightforward."

"It is particularly efficient for cloud-based storage and operations."

"It makes operations more efficient. The information processing is very fast, and very responsive. It's all about the technology."

"In terms of features that I would like to see, one is the ability to actually scale out an architecture. Right now, if you buy one, it's fixed. There is no scale-up availability at all."

"We are not able to scale. The only way to scale is to get another appliance, but we have a customers who would need us to hydrate the data between the two appliances, and Netezza does not do that."

"Our main problem with it is concurrency. When there are too many users running Netezza at the same time, this is when we have the most complaints."

"The scalability is not as expected. The capacity in the black box is not enough."

"The only issue is that it's not expandable."

"The product cost is high compared to others in the market, and this cost has become unbearable for me."

"LIke Teradata, we can’t add a node/SPU to the existing appliance."

"IBM Netezza Performance Server could improve its interface, support for big data, and APA-based connectivity should be available."

"There are some features from MongoDB that I would like to see included in Redis to enhance its overall efficiency, such as the ability to perform remote behaviour. MongoDB is more efficient in handling updates than deletions and is quicker in processing updates, but it can be slower regarding deletions. This can sometimes pose a challenge, especially when dealing with large datasets or frequent data manipulations that involve deletions. In such cases, I often rewrite columns or update values instead of directly deleting data, as it can be more efficient."

"The tool should improve by increasing its size limits and handling dynamic data better. We use the client ID or associate it with a key for static content. The solution will not be easy for a beginner. Unless you understand SQL data, it will be difficult to understand and use Redis. It also needs to be user-friendly."

"For the PubSub feature, we had to create our own tools to monitor the events."

"The initial setup of Redis was difficult, with a rating of two or three out of ten."

"The only thing is the lack of a GUI application. There was a time when we needed to resolve an issue in production. If we had a GUI, it would have been easier."

"Redis presents a single point of failure and lacks fault tolerance."

"The solution's pricing for a local installation is very expensive."

"There is room for AWS to provide more options for server types or a way to configure more or less memory for them."

"Netezza is a costly solution. It does serve a specific purpose but it's costlier than what's available in the market, if you go to the cloud."

"The solution has a yearly licensing fee, and users have to pay extra for support."

"The pricing is very expensive. It has a lot CPUs with a lot of components in it. It also has built-in redundancy for resiliency reasons."

"The tool is open-source. There are no additional costs."

"Redis is an open-source product."

"Redis is not an overpriced solution."

"We saw an ROI. It made the processing of our transactions faster."

"Redis is an open-source solution. There are not any hidden fees."
