IBM Netezza Performance Server is a basic data warehousing tool we use for internal reporting IBM Netezza Performance Server is a cost-effective solution. Oracle Exadata's security features, like TDE encryption, are missing in IBM Netezza Performance Server. I have been working with IBM Netezza…

Great queues and publishing capabilities with good reliability

We use the solution for event-driven programming. We have multiple queues and channels to provide scenarios for publishing into containers. You have to communicate the microservices, and consumers consume the services. We were using the solution to setting the tenant settings into the service.…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"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."

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

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

"IBM Netezza Performance Server is a cost-effective solution."

"The data governance prospect... from what I've seen, that is a really powerful tool as well, to help with data lineage and keeping track of that."

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

"Distribution concurrency control."

More IBM Netezza Performance Server pros

"It's super easy to deploy and it also supports different languages and analytics."

"Reliability for the messages is key. RabbitMQ ensures your messages are safe. They are not deleted and stuff."

"The most valuable feature is that it's really customizable."

"The solution is stable."

"Tanzu Greenplum's most valuable features include the integration of modern data science approaches across an MPP platform."

"The solution can scale."

"The product's feature of data transaction works fast."

"We have been able to set up a messaging system that facilitates data integration between the software modules that we sell."

Cons

"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."

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

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

"Oracle Exadata's security features, like TDE encryption, are missing in IBM Netezza Performance Server."

"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."

"Concurrency limit needs to be increased somewhat."

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

"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."

More IBM Netezza Performance Server cons

"It doesn't have any GUI-based monitoring tools."

"Implementation takes a long time."

"The initial deployment was a little difficult."

"Maintenance is time-consuming."

"I would like to see the performance of the administration portal improved and additional messaging protocols."

"If you're outside IP address range, the clustering no longer has all the features which is problematic."

"The solution needs improvement on performance."

"The product has to improve the crisis management, especially in memory issues."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"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."

"It is an open-source platform. Although, we have to pay for additional features."

"On a scale of one to five, with five being the most competitive pricing, I would rate this solution as a four."

"Tanzu Greenplum's pricing is really competitive and gives excellent value for money."

"The pricing for RabbitMQ is reasonable. It is worth the cost."

"Pricing is good compared to other products. It's fine."

"The product is available for free use since it is an open-source technology."

"are using the open-source version, which can be used free of cost."

"It is the best product with best fit for price/performance customer objectives."
