We performed a comparison between Teradata and VMware Tanzu Greenplum based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Warehouse solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Teradata features high productivity and reliability because it has several redundancy options, so the system is always up and running."
"It is a solid database a lot of different tools to move data."
"The most valuable feature of Teradata is security. It runs on Unix and Linux platforms which provide better security."
"It has massive parallel processing ability to do large amounts of concurrent querying."
"Building a data warehouse with Teradata has definitely helped a lot of our downstream applications to more easily access information."
"The functionality of the solution is excellent."
"It's a pre-configured appliance that requires very little in terms of setting-up."
"The most valuable feature of Teradata is the quick processing of large data."
"It's one of the fastest databases in the market. It's easy to use. From a maintenance perspective it's a good product. The segmentation, or architecture of the product is different than other databases such as Oracle. So even in 10 years, the data distribution for such segments will not affect other segments. The query performance of the product, for complex queries, is very good. It has good integration with Hadoop."
"A very good, open-source platform."
"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."
"It works very well with large database queries."
"Very fast for query processing."
"Pivotal Greenplum's shared-nothing architecture."
"We chose Greenplum because of the architecture in terms of clustering databases and being able to have, or at least utilize the resources that are sitting on a database."
"It's super easy to deploy and it also supports different languages and analytics."
"Apart from Control-M, it would be nice if it could integrate with other tools."
"The following could be better: licensing, architecture openness, integration with other tools."
"The user interface needs to be improved."
"GUI of administrative tools is really outdated."
"We tried to use case Teradata for a data warehouse system, but we had some problems in relation to the Teradata system, CDC tools, and source databases. We were unable to transfer data from HPE Integrity mainframe to Teradata."
"There is a need to improve performance in high transaction processes, as well as the reporting system."
"Teradata needs to pay attention to the cloud-based solution to make sure it runs smoothly."
"Teradata's UI could be more user-friendly."
"Implementation takes a long time."
"Some integration with other platforms like design tools, and ETL development tools, that will enable some advanced functionality, like fully down processing, etc."
"I saw some limitation with respect to the column store, and removing this would be an improvement."
"They need to enhance integration with other Big Data products... to integrate with Big Data platforms, and to open a bi-directional connection between Greenplum and Big Data."
"Tanzu Greenplum's compression for GPText could be made more efficient."
"The installation is difficult and should be made easier."
"The initial setup is somewhat complex and the out-of-the-box configuration requires optimization."
"Extra filters would be helpful."
