Aster Data MapReduce DW Appliance
Traditional massively parallel processing (MPP) data warehouse appliances struggle to cost-effectively keep pace with the explosion in data and rich analytics required by today's data-driven organizations.
High-priced proprietary server hardware and interconnects put the power of MPP out of reach of many organizations and make upgrades and scaling painful for the rest – until now.
