Case Study: Game Show Network achieves 100–500% more data analysis and faster reporting with Vertica

Game Show Network - Customer Case Study

Game Show Network, a small media and entertainment company managing 10–20 TB of data, faced slow or incomplete queries, an inability to analyze large volumes without losing detail, and legacy infrastructure that could not handle Big Data. These limitations hindered promotional testing, fraud monitoring, financial and customer analytics, clickstream analysis, and other data-driven initiatives.

By deploying HPE Vertica, GSN adopted an ETL approach using generic columns that lets engineers add data quickly and run complex reports far faster than legacy systems. Vertica’s speed, simplicity, standard SQL, concurrent loading/querying, compression, and BI connectivity enabled 100–500% more data to be analyzed at once, delivering faster reporting, deeper business and customer insights, greater financial visibility, and high availability for analytics.
