Data Warehouse Appliances: An Update on the State of the Art

Webinar Abstract
Many users are interested in data warehouse appliances (DWAs), because of their low cost, ease of deployment, and perky query performance. But users are not sure what the best uses of DWAs are or whether they are mature enough to adopt. After all, the DWA – as a new type of data warehouse platform – is still evolving, and therefore is difficult to track. This Webinar is an update on the state of the art in DWAs, to help users understand the best uses, evolutionary direction, leading products, and maturity of DWAs.

• Features and benefits of appliances and similar hardware/software bundles
• Trends in data warehouse appliance evolution
• Leading products and vendors, plus how they compare
• Successful use cases for appliances versus other data warehouse platforms
• Tips for the build versus buy versus bundle decision that DWAs present
