Excellent reporting server that is compatible with MySQL
We ran into some quirks that Infobright had. We interacted with Infobright's support and were able to resolve them.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It has very amazing smart grid query feature for very fast aggregate queries across millions of rows"
"Simple and straightforward admin portals: Made it easy for users and worked out excellently for our requirements"
"The solution can scale."
"We chose Greenplum because of the architecture in terms of clustering databases and being able to have, or at least utilize the resources that are sitting on a database."
"Very fast for query processing."
"The most valuable feature is asynchronous calls, which are easy to configure."
"The solution is stable."
"With VMware Tanzu Greenplum, one can make a huge database table and analyze the queries by adding in the SQL command. Some hint or command for the query goes over the multi-parallel execution."
"The loading speed is very good."
 

Cons

"Only the data from the columns that reached 2GB will actually decrease. Other columns below 2GB in size do not leave the disk."
"They should improve on the ability to scale your queues in a very simple and elegant way with the same power that they have would be great."
"Initial setup is a little complex. It took around two weeks to deploy."
"I saw some limitation with respect to the column store, and removing this would be an improvement."
"There are some security concerns that have been raised with this product."
"The user interface could be improved."
"If you have a user consuming a huge load of resources, it takes down the entire system."
"RabbitMQ is clearly better supported on Linux than it is on Windows. There are idiosyncrasies in the Windows version that are not there on Linux."
"Some integration with other platforms like design tools, and ETL development tools, that will enable some advanced functionality, like fully down processing, etc."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Our pricing was based on server instances and it was actually very cheap compared to Oracle. I guess you get what you pay for."
"This is an open source solution."
"The product is available for free use since it is an open-source technology."
"It is an open-source product."
"It’s an open-source solution."
"It is an open-source platform. Although, we have to pay for additional features."
"It is the best product with best fit for price/performance customer objectives."
"The solution's pricing is cost-effective as it does not involve significant expenses. Licensing is required only for the server, while clients do not need any licensing. Therefore, it proves to be a cost-efficient option."
"are using the open-source version, which can be used free of cost."
