Speed and resiliency are probably the best parts of this product.
Vertica processes data using in-memory Write-Optimized and Read-Optimized Storage, ensuring 10x faster queries through its columnar store database. It supports business growth with projections and geospatial functions, offering easy scalability and maintenance-free use on commodity hardware. Despite benefits like data compression, limitations include lack of RDBMS features, metadata issues, and scaling challenges. Needs exist for improved customer service, documentation, cloud and AI integration, and cost-effective installation.
