The enterprise data warehouse (EDW) has been at the cornerstone of enterprise data strategies for over 20 years. EDW systems have traditionally been built on relatively costly hardware infrastructures. But ever-growing data volume and increasingly complex processing have raised the cost of EDW software and hardware licenses while impacting the performance needed for analytic insights. Organizations can now use EDW offloading and optimization techniques to reduce costs of storing, processing and analyzing large volumes of data. Getting data governance right is critical to your business success. That means ensuring your data is clean, of excellent quality, and of verifiable lineage. Such governance principles can be applied in Hadoop-like environments. Hadoop is designed to store, process and analyze large volumes of data at significantly lower cost than a data warehouse. But to get the return on investment, you must infuse data governance processes as part of offloading.

This paper provides a checklist for buyers to compare Apple’s newest high-end offerings with the latest Dell Precision workstations.

Databases are often the driving force behind a company’s mission-critical work. They power online stores, confidential records, and customer management systems, so a solution that sustains high levels of database work can be a big advantage as your company grows. We found that the Dell EMC™ VxRail™ P470F hyperconverged system with VMware® vSAN™ could allow you to do more database work than the HPE Hyper Converged 380 (HC 380) with StoreVirtual VSA. The four-node Dell EMC solution processed more orders with faster response times, so more users can fulfill requests quicker—whether they’re placing orders in a store, accessing databases of client info, or adding to company records.
