Amazon Redshift vs. Vertica

What is Vertica?

Vertica is a unified analytics platform with flexible features. The tool was designed for sophisticated data analysis use cases. It is a relational database that supports the ANSI standard SQL and relies on a column-oriented structure. Vertica is also ACID-compatible. Depending on the need, users can choose metrics (per TB or customer), usage model (usage-based or committed expenditure), deployment (private data centers, public clouds, or hybrid), and level of automation (self-managed or fully managed) for individual use. Pricing is available upon request.
