Best Cloud Based SQL Database I've Worked With So FarIBM dashDB's ability to store and provide fast access to data both on-premise and in the cloud makes it best-of-breed when it comes to implementation flexibility. For example, with IBM dashDB it allows you to size it your needs without the upfront CapEx cost of buying hardware and software to meet the future needs of an EDW or application. All the while you can have one data solution that pulls data together data from Hyperion Planning (Oracle) and Microsoft Dynamics (MM) into the same system as part of an EDW project.,You can size dashDB to your current needs and expand its capability later on as the needed. I like the way dashDB allow for connecting to the cloud that my network engineer to set things up quickly. IBM dashDB's ability to store and provide fast access to data both on-premise and in the cloud makes it a real winner for me.,IBM dashDB could be clearer about the technology used to deliver the particular tier of the service you buy. IBM dashDB can be cost prohibitive for folks needing to push a lot of data from on-premise into the cloud on a regular basis. IBM dashDB is really like three data technologies in one and the sales teams at IBM sometimes can't explain why the MPP tier is better for certain uses over the db2 BLU based tier.,7,AzureDB and Microsoft SQL Server,9,8,Microsoft SQL Server, Azure SQL Database

About Db2 Warehouse on Cloud

IBM dashDB is a fully managed cloud data warehouse, ideal for business intelligence reporting and analytics. Use dashDB to store relational data, including special types such as geospatial data. Then analyze that data with SQL or advanced built-in analytics like Netezza predictive analytics, analytics with R, and geospatial analytics. Users can leverage the in-memory database technology to use both columnar and row-based tables. dashDB includes:

  • In-database Netezza analytics, providing the immediate answers users need from their data.
  • Massive scale and performance achieved through the MPP architecture, bringing greater storage and speed with each server instance users add to their network cluster.
  • In-memory BLU processing technology that delivers an extreme performance boost.
  • Integration with the IBM Bluemix open cloud platform, with access to many and diverse cloud services to help users build a new solution, application or architecture.
  • Direct integration with IBM Cloudant so users can easily bring NoSQL into their data warehouse.
  • SoftLayer bare metal cloud infrastructure, a high performance enterprise cloud that addresses essential security needs at the infrastructure, database and operational levels—all fully managed by IBM.
  • RStudio integration for predictive modeling, Watson Analytics compatibility for cognitive intelligence, and a comprehensive partner ecosystem that adds more and more specialized analytics capabilities.
