About Kognitio WX2
WX2 is the most powerful and scalable analytical database in the industry. It enables organisations to query, in detail, vast amounts of granular data in seconds. The software-only solution uses high-speed, Massively Parallel Processing (MPP) technology to deliver an extremely fast data mart/warehouse platform to organisations seeking to gain intelligence from their data.
WX2 runs on low-cost non-proprietary, industry-standard hardware, does not use indices or data partitions and can be scaled to handle hundreds of terabytes of data with performance that delivers answers in real time. This technology delivers the most comprehensive, cost-effective Business Intelligence database platform in the industry and offers delivery mechanisms from pure product through to fully managed services.
More than ten years of development have been focused on providing and refining the best tool for corporate Business Intelligence users to freely engage with ever-increasing volumes of data and/or disparate sets of data.
WX2 enables business to work its data harder: to take more benefit out; in shorter times scales; with considerably less effort; and without the need for a complex large-scale IT installation. Tests have shown WX2 to run 10-60 times faster than typical databases and at a lower cost of ownership when compared to the lifecycle cost of other solutions.
