This time last year, in my blog article entitled: “VW World Records – So What?”, I predicted Vectorwise’s record breaking price performance would deliver break-out value to many businesses. I argued that with Vectorwise’s ultra high performance at a ultra low cost, even a 200-person company can now leverage Intel’s multi-billion dollar R&D investment in their chip technology to gain affordable performance for a whole range of tasks hitherto out of their reach . This opens up a whole new world of possibilities – from being able to compete with larger or more established competitors to accessing brand new markets to building innovative new functionality that would change their industry.
I recently read an article in Forbes Right Now by Lisa Arthur, quoting Gartner’s statistics that CMOs will be outspending CIOs on IT in the next 5 years, driven by the inexorable rise in on-line business and Big Data.
