Vertica shakes up market; Redshift major disruptor | #HPBigData2015
by Heather Johnson | Aug 12, 2015
theCUBE cohosts Dave Vellante and John Furrier closed out the HP Big Data Conference with optimism about what they consider one of HP’s most successful acquisitions in history.
HP acquired Vertica in 2011. Vertica’s greatest asset, Vellante notes, was its DevOps employees. After HP put Colin Mahony in charge of the HP Software Big Data business group, Vertica developed to become a lynchpin of software strategy. “Vertica is a market-changing solution,” says Furrier.
Furrier notes that Vertica’s increasing use by startups is notable and a “signal to where the market is going,” he says. “This is the new way to do software development — to turn to Vertica. And this is the new HP.”
Vellante notes that although Vertica is shaking up the market, Amazon’s Redshift, a fully managed, petabyte-scale data warehouse, is “the major disruptor.” He added, “They took the IP from ParAccel and built their own database that they are selling as a service. Redshift is kicking ass, and it’s disruptive to models like Vertica.”

Vellante and Furrier agree that HP put on another successful Big Data event. “HP provided relevant content, predominantly presented by practitioners, in an intimate setting,” says Vellante. “My hope is that they can keep it intimate and practitioner-oriented.”
“They have tapped into the developer market where the engineering is getting done,” says Furrier. “It’s an elite breed, but Big Data is powered by the infrastructure. There is so much more to do.”
