The Vertica Analytics Platform and Hadoop are highly complementary systems for big data analytics.
The Vertica Analytics Platform is ideal for interactive, blazing-fast analytics and Hadoop is well suited for batch-oriented data processing and low-cost data storage. When used together, with tight integration and support for all Hadoop distributions, the Vertica Analytics Platform and Hadoop offer the most open SQL on Hadoop.
The organizations can use the most powerful set of data analytics capabilities and do far more than either platform could do on its own, extracting significantly higher levels of value from massive amounts of structured, unstructured, and semi-structured data.
