Introducing PIVOTAL HD:

The world's most powerful Hadoop distribution

Having a single Hadoop infrastructure for Big Data investigation and analysis changes everything. Now add to all of this functionality the fact that the SQL performance is up to 100x faster than other offerings and you have an environment that we at NYSE Euronext are extremely excited about.

Steven Hirsch , Chief Data Officer

Hadoop is a big deal and poised, for many enterprises, as the key to unlock Big Data’s transformational potential. Marrying the extraordinary capabilities of the Greenplum technology, essentially the Greenplum 'crown jewels'with this amazing open-source phenomenon has been no small feat, but we’re 'all in' to help catapult Hadoop into wide-scale adoption.

Scott Yara , Senior Vice President of Products

By integrating the Greenplum database natively within Hadoop, Pivotal HD opens up Big Data analytics to a new class of practitioner – the savvy business user –providing both real-time query responsiveness via a familiar SQL interface and eliminating the need to move data back and forth between Hadoop and separate analytic databases.

Jeff Kelly , Big Data Analyst

Hadoop has proven to be a fantastic platform for companies to develop an emerging class of new batch Big Data analytics and applications. By integrating GP SQL with Hadoop, Greenplum is delivering a much needed high performance SQL interface to the Hadoop ecosystem, unlocking the armies of existing SQL developers to build interactive BI data applications.

Todd Papaioannou , Founder & CEO

Pivotal HD is a complete game-changer. Bringing the power of Greenplum's MPP query engine to Hadoop HDFS opens a new realm of analytic use-cases. At Alteryx, we empower Data Artisans to drive decisions across Big Data sources. We look forward to supporting Pivotal HD as part of the new analytics stack emerging in the market.

George K. Mathew , President and COO

The tide is shifting from the rigid data warehouses of yesterday to agile Hadoop-based data reservoirs that let enterprises mix diverse datasets and explore them in new ways. Greenplum's deep investments in Hadoop validate and accelerate that shift, and Platfora is excited to give customers unprecedented time-to-business-value from their Hadoop investments.

Ben Werther , Founder and CEO

Hadoop continues to be a catalyst transforming BI and data management practices. The emerging landscape of Hadoop provides unparalleled flexibility for a wide range of applications. By providing our customers with Interactive SQL access and rich analytic capabilities, our customers are exploring data sources and experiencing insights previously out of reach.

Justin Borgmax , CEO

Customers are looking to leverage large data assets in Hadoop using tools enterprises are already using everyday. With the Revolution Analytics platform, data scientists have multiple ways to extend their Hadoop assets, using R, the de-facto open source analytic platform, along with SQL, the most prevalent data access language. We see Pivotal HD as a key part of our strategy.
