Time to Create an Unfair Business Advantage

The ParAccel Analytic Database™ gives you faster access to data and the ability to utilize your business information more effectively, allowing you to accomplish in seconds what used to take hours.

Built for Speed: Why ParAccel's Columnar, MPP DBMS is More Efficient

• Only relevant columns are retrieved (A row-wise DBMS would pull all columnns and typically discard 80-95% of them)
• All operations are done in parallel (A non-parallel DBMS must scan all of the data sequentially)
• Adaptive compression makes disks faster, reduces decompress effect
• A memory-centric design maximizes in-memory processing
• Patent-pending innovations drive performance to unprecedented levels

Row-based vs Column-based Processing

Heavy read activity is a primary characteristic of BI processing. The following is a simple example to highlight ParAccel's scan performance advantage over a common row-based DBMS.

Query of U.S. Census Data What is the average age of people by state?
	Common Row-based DBMS	ParAccel's Column-based DBMS
Number of Records	300M people@ 1k bytes/person	300M people@ 1k bytes/person
Scan Volume	300GB	6GB
Efficiency	98% waste	No waste
Performance	Minutes	Seconds

Add ParAccel's massively parallel processing (MPP) for even greater speed!
