We performed a comparison between IBM Netezza Performance Server and MariaDB based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Snowflake Computing, Oracle, Teradata and others in Data Warehouse."IBM Netezza Performance Server is a cost-effective solution."
"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 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."
"Distribution concurrency control."
"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 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 most valuable feature would be the fact that it has been running for awhile in an appliance format."
"The most valuable features of the IBM Netezza Performance Server are the NPS server because of the reduced maintenance and overall good performance."
"We use MariaDB for identity provider services. Most of the things that we are doing are deployed in the container mode. All such solutions require a database, and MariaDB is easier to use for these kinds of deployments."
"MariaDB is easy to install and is stable and scalable."
"The most valuable features of the solution stem from the fact that it is an open-source product and offers its users great online community support."
"For non-production purposes. I'm just using it for my personal project, so it works quite well. I haven't faced any errors yet."
"I haven't faced any technical issues with the product, and it works fine."
"The product has been stable and reliable."
"It is a scalable solution. It easily scales up and scales down."
"MariaDB can solve things better than MySQL. Maria DB has better performance than MySQL."
"The scalability is not as expected. The capacity in the black box is not enough."
"IBM Netezza Performance Server could improve its interface, support for big data, and APA-based connectivity should be available."
"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."
"We are not able to scale. The only way to scale is to get another appliance, but we have a customers who would need us to hydrate the data between the two appliances, and Netezza does not do that."
"Concurrency limit needs to be increased somewhat."
"LIke Teradata, we can’t add a node/SPU to the existing appliance."
"The scaling for database online transactions needs improvement."
"Data continuity could be improved."
"The configuration could be improved. It should be easier."
"The GUI could be improved a bit. The user interface needs to be improved."
"The license should be cheaper and closer to that offered by MySQL, Oracle and other products."
"Lacks time series data and additional driving support would be helpful."
"When we have had issues with accidental computer shutdown or a power outage, our MariaDB database was corrupted."
"I would like to see more compatibility going forward. This would help if there is a need to change databases."
