IngresVectorWise, a collaborative project between VectorWise (http://www.vectorwise.com/index_js.php), a spin out from the leading database research team at CWI of Amsterdam, a research institute in mathematics and computer science and Ingres Corporation (http://www.ingres.com/), a leading open-source database company promises to break new ground in data management technology allowing businesses to perform data computing at unprecedented reduced costs and magnitude.
"This technology breakthrough will enable a CFO to easily analyze hundreds of millions of business transactions in seconds - even on a laptop at 35,000 feet," said Roger Burkhardt, CEO, Ingres. "This ability to extract deep insights from detailed business data at the 'speed of thought' will empower all leaders to make better business decisions, from anywhere at any time."

The project focuses on integrating the cutting-edge VectorWise engine with the familiar interfaces and tools of Ingres providing technology that will allow industry developers to take better advantage of advances in modern processor and storage hardware.

Ingres VectorWise claims “to enable businesses to perform data analysis tasks that were previously not feasible.” Initial results, substantiated by Intel, show that the Ingres VectorWise project achieves more than 10x performance gains.
