IBM Netezza High Capacity Appliance
Philip Howard of Bloor Research says,
"This is what Netezza has done in the data warehousing market: it has totally changed the way that we think about data warehousing."
IBM Netezza High Capacity Appliance
The IBM Netezza High Capacity Appliance extends the company's family
of data warehouse appliances to new extremes of data capacity, scaling to more
than 10 petabytes of user data. This appliance can be used as a "queryable
archive" that can store, query and analyze thousands of terabytes of data
quickly and cost-effectively, or as a consolidated hot-standby platform and
disaster recovery unit for multiple IBM Netezza data warehouse appliances. It
is also suitable for industries that have a regulatory requirement to maintain
multiple years of history online. This enables organizations to meet a variety
of analytical and historical data storage requirements with a single, cost-effective
appliance.
Every IBM Netezza data warehouse appliance is delivered with IBM Netezza Analytics,
an embedded software platform for advanced analytics. It provides the technology
infrastructure to support enterprise deployments of parallel, in-database analytics.
Support for a variety of popular tools and languages as well as a built-in library
of parallelized analytic functions make it simple to move analytic modeling
and scoring inside the data warehouse appliance. IBM Netezza Analytics is fully
integrated into the IBM Netezza data warehouse asymmetric massively parallel
processing (AMPP) architecture enabling data exploration, model-building, model-diagnostics
and scoring with unprecedented speed.
Key product highlights:
- Runs analytic computations directly in the appliance, without moving data,
thereby accelerating analytic queries and shortening query times
- Reduces the cost and expands the available disaster recovery options for
IBM Netezza data warehouse appliance users, serving as a consolidated hot-standby platform during an
outage
- Maximizes performance by running parallelized, in-database advanced analytics
algorithms via the IBM Netezza Analytics embedded software platform. IBM Netezza
Analytics provides a built-in analytics library that includes statistics,
data preparation, data mining, predictive analytics, linear algebra and geospatial
algorithms
- Offers massive data capacities and the simplicity of an appliance, and cost-effectively
manages information throughout the information's lifecycle
