OpenText Vertica Overview

What is OpenText Vertica?

Vertica is the unified analytics platform, based on a massively scalable architecture with a broad set of analytical functions spanning event and time series, pattern matching, geospatial, and built-in machine learning capability. Vertica enables data analytics teams to easily apply these powerful functions to large and demanding analytical workloads, arming them and their customers with predictive business insights. Vertica provides a unified analytics platform across major public clouds and on-premises data centers, and integrates data in cloud object storage and HDFS without forcing any data movement. Available as a SaaS option, or as a customer-managed platform, Vertica helps teams combine growing data siloes for a more complete view of available data. Vertica features separation of compute and storage, so teams can spin up storage and compute resources as needed, then spin down afterwards to reduce costs.

What do you like best about OpenText Vertica?

The vertica datawarehouse offers columnar store database structure capable of handling big data workloads

unlike other traditional databases.

This architecture coupled with other efficient parellel processing techniques

allows for exceptional performance when resolving complex OLAP problems

and rightly so that is their USP.

This comes in handy especially when you deal with near real-time stream workloads usecases.

Lastly, they have launched VerticaPylab which is a great addition for empowering ML based solutions

Also, integration to reporting services such as Tableau are easy to implement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenText Vertica?

In contrast to alternative tools in market, they have significantly

smaller userbase and hence getting help from online community for issues can be challenging.

After their aquisition from Micro focus to Opentext, there has been few changes in layout in documentation

as well as layout of UI , which creates additional learning curve.

After a certain threshold(of datasize), the operational costs drastically

increases which sometimes is not justifiable Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is OpenText Vertica solving and how is that benefiting you?

The goal was to explore the capabilties of datawarehouse and finds its place

in the big list of other established datawarehouse solutions in the market

Specifically for catering the reporting dashboard department and its data requirements.

In contrast to other datawarehouses, we found that integration to reporting

services such as Tableau are highly reliable even for large datasets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No dislike. But to learn this new kind "Lakehouse" takes a little more time for a "traditional" DBA Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is OpenText Vertica solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our traditional Data Warehouse always have had performance issue due to the over large size. Plus, the new un-structured feature added in, making it very difficult to processing on a lot of things (including daily ETL). We are trying to engage a lot of new tools on the market, OpenText Vertica, the Datalake seems like resolves some of our problems. We are still on exploring new features...
