Case Study: Clarity Innovations achieves faster intelligence insights with Yellowbrick Data

Clarity Innovations Gives The Intelligence Community Better, Faster Insight With Yellowbrick

Clarity Innovations, which provides analytic software for the US Intelligence Community, needed a faster way to handle growing petabyte-scale datasets. Its traditional disk-based data platform could no longer load and query information quickly enough to support mission-critical work, so it turned to Yellowbrick Data to improve performance and ease the transition.

With Yellowbrick Data’s analytics-optimized, SQL-standard database, Clarity Innovations was able to load billions of rows in minutes and accelerate complex queries dramatically. A geographic information lookup that previously took almost 60 minutes returned in milliseconds, all while benefiting from a compact footprint that reduced hardware requirements and helped keep costs down.
