-
High Availability
Vertica ensures the database’s ability to continue running even if a node fails. Vertica automatically restores missing data by requesting other nodes.
-
Mass Parallel Processing
Vertica allows users to continuously upload real-time data to any node. The request will be evenly distributed and managed by designating one of the nodes as the initiator of the request, and the others as executors.
-
Automatic Database Design
For efficient automated database design, HP Vertica uses a database designer. When data is loaded into Vertica from a row storage data source, Vertica converts the data into column-based projections.
-
"Zero" Administration
Vertica does not require administration or complex configuration during use.
-
Significant Savings
You don’t need to spend significant money on adding DBA resources, replacing current DBMS and purchasing additional licences for them, and purchasing proprietary software and hardware systems.
-
User-Friendly Interface
Vertica has a standard SQL interface that is compatible with all analytical applications and supports ODBC, JDBC, ADO.NET connectors.
-
High Compression Ratio
