The Move to Appliances

Cast Iron Systems is not the only information appliance vendor to get attention. In a recent report, the market research firm IDC argued that data warehouse appliances are gaining in popularity and fulfilling "real, existing needs of a specific segment of the market." Companies surveyed for the report listed lower total cost of ownership, lower maintenance requirements and faster deployments as the top reasons for evaluating a data warehouse appliance that combines server, storage and software into a single preconfigured bundle. IDC estimates that the data warehouse appliance market will have a combined average growth rate of 70 percent over the next five years if the current rate of organic growth continues.

5 Minute Briefing talked to Ellen Rubin, vice president of marketing at Netezza, which has pioneered the data warehouse appliance category to find out what was driving the growth. "According to IDC, 23 percent of organizations expect their data warehouse to at least double in size over the next three years," she said. Data warehouse appliances offers strong price/performance, simplicity and ease of management. Moreover, she noted, Netezza itself has been certified to operate with a wide array of business intelligence and data integration vendors. Indeed, single-purpose computing seems to be a growing trend. For more about Netezza, go here. To follow all the latest trends in data management, subscribe to Database Trends and Applications here.
