The Full End-to-End Process
The Bloor Group
Each is a distinct step
The process applies both to BI development and BI implementation
The model stage disappears with implementation
I want complete self-service
The Point About Discovery
The Bloor Group
A Word About Vector Processing
The Bloor Group
q Vector processing is very fast
q It exploits the vector processing capability of commodity CPU
q Very few vendors exploit this capability
! In respect of this software suite, please speak to the following latencies:
! Data Analyst latency
! Developer latency
! Deployment latency
! User performance experience
! How active is Actian Galaxy?
! Actian has acquired ParAccel; what are its intentions in terms of further product development?
! In your view, is the “age of the data warehouse” over?
! Which sectors/businesses are currently in Actian’s “sweet spot?”
! Which companies/products do you regard as competitors/partners?
