• MPP (Massively Parallel Processing) - queries can be answered significantly faster due to data being distributed across all of a clusters nodes

• Columnar storage - analytics performance is accelerated by reducing the number of I/O operations and amount of data needed for processing in main memory.
• Self-tuning - performance is optimized and maintenance requirements are minimized thanks to intelligent algorithms that monitor usage and perform self-tuning tasks automatically
• Plug-in options such as virtualization capabilities allow you to connect to, and analyze data from, more sources than ever. Language extensions support the programming language of your choice and robust data security is assured, wherever you store your data.
