Vertica is a pretty large commercial column store with a lot of customers. Although I'm not sure if the Yandex folks got permission to publish benchmarks about it...

(MonetDB is a classic research columnar database, and I believe MemSQL has a columnar mode. Greenplum is missing, for some reason.)



It looks like they benchmarked against MemSQL 3.2, which is nearly 2 years old and Hive .11, which is close to 3 years. Not sure how out of date the other comparisons are.


That's what I want to know, how fast is it agaisn't Vertica.


Well, they have benchmarks! Against Vertica! Which is surprising, because I imagine Vertica's EULA forbids that.

Wait, Vertica forbids publishing benchmarks? What exactly are they going to do?


Clicked one of the vote buttons while trying to hit reply, sorry if it was a down...

Most DB vendors forbid benchmarks, Oracle, IBM DB2, etc, they claim they can remove your rights to run the software if you publish them


sweet, now where can I see the projections :)
