We performed a comparison between Actian Ingres and IBM Netezza Performance Server based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Snowflake Computing, Oracle, Teradata and others in Data Warehouse."The deployment of our solution across a number of servers using Ingres .NET has meant that we can protect the database server behind a highly secure firewall and deploy the front end solutions on a normal web server."
"IBM Netezza Performance Server is a cost-effective solution."
"The most valuable feature would be the fact that it has been running for awhile in an appliance format."
"The underlying hardware that IBM provides with this appliance is made for a specific purpose, to serve performance on a large amount of data, and to do analytics as well. It is faster, when you compare it to any other product."
"We are able to execute very complex queries. Over 90 percent of our query executions are one second or less. We do millions of queries everyday."
"The performance is most important to me, and it helps our ability to make business decisions quickly."
"The most valuable features of the IBM Netezza Performance Server are the NPS server because of the reduced maintenance and overall good performance."
"The benefit is really because of the additional speed that we have and, truth be told, the more updated ETL processes and the revamped scheduler in general."
"The data governance prospect... from what I've seen, that is a really powerful tool as well, to help with data lineage and keeping track of that."
"The ability to reset the log file without stopping the DBMS would be helpful for us."
"The scalability is not as expected. The capacity in the black box is not enough."
"Concurrency limit needs to be increased somewhat."
"The only issue is that it's not expandable."
"In terms of features that I would like to see, one is the ability to actually scale out an architecture. Right now, if you buy one, it's fixed. There is no scale-up availability at all."
"Oracle Exadata's security features, like TDE encryption, are missing in IBM Netezza Performance Server."
"Our main problem with it is concurrency. When there are too many users running Netezza at the same time, this is when we have the most complaints."
"IBM Netezza Performance Server could improve its interface, support for big data, and APA-based connectivity should be available."
"LIke Teradata, we can’t add a node/SPU to the existing appliance."
