Data is one of your most important assets. The ability to analyze your company, customers and marketplace can give you a competitive advantage by helping you take better actions. However data volume is exploding and traditional data analysis is slow and expensive. you must take action on Big Data, but existing technologies don’t enable you to do so.

Vectorwise introduces revolutionary technology that leverages the latest performance features in modern CpUs. As a result, Vectorwise performs much faster than any other analytical database on equivalent commodity hardware. in addition, Vectorwise stores data in columns rather than rows to ensure that columns that are not accessed by a query do not have to be retrieved, and data is always automatically compressed. parallel execution also ensures that you get maximum performance out of your hardware.

Vectorwise supports industry standards for relational databases including ANSi SQl and connectivity through JDBC, ODBC and .Net. industry-leading Bi tools support the Vectorwise database enabling insight into Big Data.

Vectorwise is available from Actian Corporation, formerly ingres Corporation. Actian provides a 24/7 world-wide support infrastructure to support mission critical data management applications running the ingres and Vectorwise databases.

Benefits of Vectorwise database features

Performance › Vector-based processing enables up to 100 instructions to be processed simultaneously.

› Vectors of data are processed using the chip cache memory which is more than 100x faster than using RAm.

› i/O and storage requirements are minimized with automatic optimum compression technology.

› parallel execution ensures the fastest possible query execution times.

› fast performance enables insight into Big Data.

› DATA SHEETVectorwise – Simply Fast

Simplicity › fast performance eliminates the need for special schema design and expert tuning, resulting in faster project delivery.

› improved processing efficiency enables a single server to comfortably support a data-intensive workload against Big Data. many other databases require a cluster of servers to deliver comparable performance.

› Vectorwise automatically chooses the optimal compression scheme.

› Use ANSi SQl and JDBC, ODBC or .Net to access data in ingres Vectorwise.

Affordability › Vectorwise unlocks the available power in your hardware so you can gain faster insights into more data with less hardware.

› more efficient use of hardware means less power consumption, less space used in the data center, and less power required to cool down the hardware.

› fast performance eliminates the need for expert schema design and extensive tuning.

Low risk › Actian supports over 10,000 customers running mission-critical data management systems across the world.

› Actian Corporation has 20+ years of experience in the market and a global 24/7 support infrastructure.

› modest hardware requirements and ease of use ensure you see a quick return on investment.

› The Vectorwise engine has been developed by leading database researchers who developed the very first column-based database in the early 1990s.

Vectorwise is available on linux x86-64 and 64-bit Windows (versions 7 and 2008). Download Vectorwise today to start building Action Apps.
