Trends
The DW appliance market has started to shift trends inmany areas as it evolves:
- Vendors have started moving toward using commodity technologies rather than proprietary assembly of commodity components
- Implemented applications show usage expansion from tactical and data-mart solutions to strategic and enterprise data-warehouse use.
- Mainstream vendor participation has become apparent as of 2009.
- With a lower total cost of ownership, reduced maintenance and high performance to address business analytics on growing data volumes,most analysts believe that DW appliances will gain market share - though TeraData maintain their leadership position.
- Vendors have begun providing the ability to incorporate 'in-database' analytic algortihms to take advantage of their MPP architectures, eliminating the need to extract large datasets into traditional analytic and data mining platforms such as SAS.

Famous quotes containing the word trends:
“A point has been reached where the peoples of the Americas must take cognizance of growing ill-will, of marked trends toward aggression, of increasing armaments, of shortening tempers—a situation which has in it many of the elements that lead to the tragedy of general war.... Peace is threatened by those who seek selfish power.”
—Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
“Thanks to recent trends in the theory of knowledge, history is now better aware of its own worth and unassailability than it formerly was. It is precisely in its inexact character, in the fact that it can never be normative and does not have to be, that its security lies.”
—Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)
“Power-worship blurs political judgement because it leads, almost unavoidably, to the belief that present trends will continue. Whoever is winning at the moment will always seem to be invincible.”
—George Orwell (1903–1950)
