Chevron Corporation - Customer Case Study

Chevron, a Fortune 500 energy company, moved off MySQL to address growing analytics and tracking needs across ERP/CRM, customer behavior, clickstream and predictive use cases, managing between 6–100 TB of data and integrating with Talend for ETL.

Deploying the Vertica analytics platform gave Chevron a standard SQL interface, simultaneous loading and querying, high availability without hardware redundancy, and an advanced optimizer/execution engine—resulting in a >50x improvement in query performance, a 51–100% reduction in TCO, and a 101–200% ROI.
