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.
IBM Netezza Performance Server delivers remarkable speed with enhanced ETL processes and a new scheduler, excelling in complex query execution for swift decision-making. Its appliance format with specialized hardware supports large-scale analytics but lacks scalability options, requiring full data hydration when adding appliances. While effective in data governance and tracking, it misses features like TDE encryption from Oracle Exadata. Increasing concurrency and node addition capabilities would enhance its offering.
