    Percona Server for MySQL covers 100% of our requirements in terms of our OLTP traffic and provides the High Availability levels required through a typical primary and 2 replica's using semi-synchronous replication. We're able to scale our writes using sharding, but a true distributed database would be a great option on top of this. In terms of OLAP traffic, we leverage columns stores available, but Percona Server fairs well

    Netezza is sufficient against similar products. It comes down to personal preference, I'd love to have the data objects popping up as I type but some people may not like it.

    Return on Investment
    IBM
    • The appliance is all in one so we have all licenses and support contracts under one roof.
    • The cost is expensive so ROI may take time to be realized.
    • If done correctly, then Netezza provides the opportunity for huge ROI.

    Percona
    • At the performance level, it maintains and even improves other open-source databases such as MariaDB or some commercial ones such as Oracle.
    • If we compare it with MySQL, we could have up to 50% improvement in performance.
    • For some small companies or startups, the price of the complete solution and the support can be a bit high.
