First! First! First! Pivotal Diamond Partner PGDay.IT 2018
We are very proud to announce Pivotal as a Diamond Partner of PGDay.IT 2018.
Pivotal is the first company to become a Partner of PGDay.IT, has opted for a Diamond Partnership (First level) and this is also the first time that Pivotal is collaborating with us at ITPUG. Three times First! Fantastic!
We hope this is just the beginning of a long collaboration.
We asked Cesar Rojas, Head of Marketing, the reason why Pivotal decided to accompany us in this new adventure becoming a Diamond Partner of PGDay.IT 2018.
Here it is the answer:
PostgreSQL is the best open source operational (OLTP) database on the planet but many PostgreSQL users are forced to work with proprietary analytical databases (e.g. Oracle or Teradata) for their data warehousing and big data workloads.
We are reaching out to the community with a better analytics alternative. The Greenplum Database is an open source, 100% based on PostgreSQL, an analytical platform that offers a proven path of migration from expensive and proprietary alternatives to the Postgres ecosystem.
