"The message routing is the most valuable feature. It is effective and flexible."
"The stability of this solution was very good."
"Scalability is simple because it's an MPP database. If you need more processing power or you need more storage, you just add a few more nodes in the cluster. It works on common commodity hardware. You can use any type of server. You don't need to have proprietary hardware. It's fairly flexible."
"The solution's technical support is good."
"A very good, open-source platform."
"The most valuable feature is asynchronous calls, which are easy to configure."

"The debugging capabilities and testing flexibilities need to be improved."
"VMware Tanzu Greenplum needs improvement in the memory area and improved methods for quick access to the disc. So, one of the quick goals of Greenplum must work on enhancing access to the disc by adding hints in the database."
