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.
IBM Netezza Performance Server excels in data compression with up to 4:1 efficiency and executes millions of queries daily, with over 90% completing in under one second. It integrates with tools like SSIS, MicroStrategy, and Tableau. Despite its cost-effectiveness and reduced maintenance, scalability is limited, requiring an additional appliance for disaster recovery. Concurrency issues and unreliable hardware present challenges, and its higher price than alternatives might deter some tech buyers.
