What makes Pivotal HD different is its ability to offer the full spectrum of the SQL interface and run reports\u00a0without moving data between systems or using connectors that require users to store the data twice.\u00a0It removes the complexity of using Hadoop, thus expanding the platform&#8217;s potential and productivity, and allowing customers to enjoy the benefits of the most cost-effective and flexible data processing platform ever developed.<\/p>\n<p>Sam Grocott, vice president of marketing and product management, EMC Isilon<em>, <\/em>noted, &#8220;The introduction of Pivotal HD, combined with EMC Isilon&#8217;s native integration of the Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) protocol, continues the evolution of the industry&#8217;s first and only enterprise-proven Hadoop solution on a scale-out NAS architecture. This powerful combination succeeds in reducing the complexities traditionally associated with Hadoop deployments and allows enterprises to easily extract business value from unstructured data.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Using the\u00a0Greenplum MPP analytical database, Pivotal HD is a true SQL parallel database on top of the Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS). \u00a0HAWQ adds the capabilities of note include Dynamic Pipelining, a world-class query optimizer, horizontal scaling, SQL compliant, interactive query, deep analytics, and support for common Hadoop formats. HAWQ unlocks the potential of Hadoop&#8217;s\u00a0fault-tolerant storage capabilities by bringing to bear the vast pool of \u201cdata worker\u201d tools and languages into the Hadoop ecosystems.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith Pivotal HD, we can check off many of the items on our Hadoop wish-list\u2014things like plug-in support for the ecosystem of tools, improved data management and greater elasticity in terms of the storage and compute layer,&#8221; Steven Hirsch, chief data officer, SVP Global Data Services, NYSE Euronext.\u00a0&#8221;But above all, it provides true SQL query interfaces for data workers and tools\u2014not a superficial implementation of the kind that&#8217;s so common today, but a native implementation that delivers the capability of real and true SQL processing and optimization. Having a single Hadoop infrastructure for Big Data investigation and analysis changes everything. Now add to all of this functionality the fact that the SQL performance is up to 100x faster than other offerings and you\u00a0have an environment that we at NYSE Euronext are extremely excited about.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At the RSA conference this week in San Francisco, EMC announced Pivotal HD, a new distribution of Apache Hadoop.\u00a0Pivotal HD features native integration of EMC&#8217;s Greenplum massively parallel processing (MPP) database with Apache Hadoop.
