“With shrinking batch windows, growing amounts of detailed data and increasing pressure to make time-sensitive decisions, fast access to data is a necessity to being competitive. With the NPS system, retailers have this fast access as well as the ability to execute innovative business initiatives.”
The Netezza Performance Server system is the market-leading data warehouse appliance built specifically to analyze terabytes of detailed data significantly faster and more cost effectively than existing data warehouse options.
The NPS system stores, filters and processes terabytes of records within a single unit, analyzing only the relevant information for each query.
Netezza has placed the CPU power next to the data, allowing the NPS system to speed through processes that would occupy most data warehouse systems for hours, or even days, thereby enabling dramatic increases in productivity across the organization.
Customers who have recognized the benefits of Netezza's approach include Ahold, Amazon.com, Catalina Marketing, Cingular Wireless, CNET Networks, Debenhams, Department of Veterans Affairs, Epsilon, Neiman Marcus, Orange UK, Premier, Inc., Restoration Hardware, Ryder System, Inc., Shoppers Drug Mart Corporation, The Carphone Warehouse and The TJX Companies.
