simple awful, dont bother!
This is horrible, It's impossible to get any kind of support and the product ties you to a autoscaling env where you have to surgically remove yourself to be able to start , shutdown without losing the whole environment.

Greenplum - BIg Data Database
What do you like best about the product?
It is most modern and powerful DB build
What do you dislike about the product?
It's one of the most modern and powerful open source DB built for modern analytics using AI. The Database is built on already popular Postgres DB architecture which is a proven technology. Green plumb provides the unique cost-based query optimizer which helps to query large amounts of data and still pay less. This also does not degrade the DB performance even while dealing with petabytes of data. It's easy to deploy and maintain. Greenplum also provides AI features that collaborate with the analytics and operational workload features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Used for storing the retail analytics data and using the inbuild in-database analytics features we are generating various insights with less dependency on the external tools. Also, the machine learning capabilities of the database help run the complex algorithms very effectively.
