Greenplum is a good data warehouse for enterprise and is built on the Postgres theme of databases. I can run analytic SQL without much issue.

Greenplum is proprietary and no longer a core product of Pivotal. It seems like cloud foundry is their new scene.

The business problems I'm solving with Pivotal Greenplum is the need to run analytic SQL and being able to run advanced SQL queries on the cluster for my workflows.

Good Relational Postgres Database

  • March 06, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The Greenplum database is a big datastore that allows me to run SQL queries with ease in PostgreSQL language. I've not had many problems with the database and enjoy the flexibility to run advanced SQL queries.
What do you dislike about the product?
The issue I take with greenplum is with performance. Queries sometimes take overnight to run and I have to wait a while for my results.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Greenplum allows me to run analytic SQL and it provides a clear understanding of where our business is going and provides insight where sales or marketing is murky.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Greenplum isn't a cheap database but it's a PostgreSQL database worth trying out for sure.

MPP Database solution

  • January 30, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like how the Greenplum database is an abstraction of PostgreSQL and I can query the database for results pretty easily. The Greenplum command center which is made by Pivotal is also a decent tool to see queries being run and CPU utilization.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the results take a while to get. Yesterday it took about 8 hours with 2 threads to get my workload on a few billion rows. Other solutions may exist that are better on the marketplace.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Greenplum is allowing me to execute analytics functions far better and more easily than previously before.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a massively parallel processing relational database but it's not cheap.

Massively Parallel DB

  • January 23, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's a decent MPP PostgreSQL database that we use for our client data.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dont think Greenplum manages resources well. It throws its resources at everything and requires tuning.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We can access data, build reports, and run advanced reports and more. It gets the job done.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a decent MPP. I think there might be other databases out there that are just as good though...
