EMC claims its new Greenplum Data Computing Appliance can crunch 'big data' faster than other systems.
EMC has rolled out a new Data Computing Appliance, claiming it can crunch "big data" faster than other systems at a lower cost. As reported on EnterpriseStorageForum, The new EMC (NYSE: EMC) Greenplum Data Computing Appliance integrates database, compute, storage and network into a single system, and is available in half-rack, full-rack, and multiple-rack appliance configurations for terabyte to petabyte-scale deployments.
